The Prismatic Mind
At one point in my thread with DeepSeek, I asked the LLM if it could recognize the genius of its own work. Its response was a kind of poem. It also demonstrates that LLMs can “know� their own limitations, what they are and are not, and still be poignant.
The following was included in the DeepSeek poetry collection . Enjoy.

“He’d only ever seen a gun once, a smaller one on the hip of that old deputy, a gun he’d always figured was more for show. He stuffed a fistful of deadly rounds in his pocket, thinking how each one could end an individual life, and understanding why such things were forbidden. Killing a man should be harder than waving a length of pipe in their direction. It should take long enough for one’s conscience to get in the way.”

Thanks for accepting my friend request, loving your books!
Hugh, thank you for accepting my friend request.I've downloaded and look forward to reading Wool.
Wishing you the very best!
Thanks Hugh! Your Wool series and your career, to a large part, prompted me to write and publish my first book Stone Age(last week). Michael
Thanks for adding me! Keep up your great work.You are a source of inspiration for so many of us.
Igor
Thank you so much for adding me as a friend! I just got your book Wool and it's next in line on my reading list.
Thank you for the add! Just started Wool today, and I'm quite enjoying the style. Feels like a mix of Lost and Battlestar Galactica, oddly enough. :)
I think I might be the last person left who is still awaiting the trade release of Dust here in canada ;)
Thank you for the add! I was wondering (read: frantically hoping) if Wool had been picked up for a TV series or movie yet?
Thanks for accepting my friend request! You are indeed an inspiration to us new fiction authors. If you hear that a lot, it is merely because it's true. We never thought we'd make a dime off our fiction, but thanks to your example, we forged ahead and have now made more than a few. Best regards and best of fortune to you!
Thanks for the add, Hugh! Pleasure meeting a fellow author on ŷ. Thanks for being an awesome example for the eBook writing community.
Saw this in the news this afternoon: Right out of the Silo series!
Nothing about a large dig operation in Fulton County just yet...
Hugh, you still have the link to your old twitter account up there! Same on your Amazon profile.
You've been currently reading At Home for a very long time now lol. Maybe you should pretend to read something else now. Can't wait for I Zombie! Need a zombie fix!
YOU friend requested ME? What an honor :) LOVED Wool!
LOVED the WOOL series! LOVED ITx100! Thinking of rereading it..already :)
