On a more serious note, this highlights a deeper issue with HN, similar sites and the attention economy. When an article takes a lot of time to read:
- The only people commenting at first have no read it.
- By the time you are done reading it, it's no longer visible on the front page so new people are not coming in anymore and the discussion appears dead. This discourages people who read it from making thoughtful comments because few people will read it.
- There are people who wait for the discussion to die down so they can read it without missing the later thoughtful comments but they are discouraged from participating earlier while the discussion is alive because then they'd have to wade through the constantly changing discussion and separate what they have already seen from what they haven't.

Back on topic, I'd love to see this with weights from an actual working model and a customizable input text so we could see how both the seed and input affects the output. And also a way to explore vectors representing "meanings" the way 3blue1brown did in his LLM videos.
