This shows retrieval of a 'fact' from an acknowledged source (Wikipedia): How old is Dorothy Wordsworth. The answer given is, according to Wikipedia, Dorothy Wordsworth died on 25 January 1855 (aged 83) It goes on to drill down into the algorithm: What is implied by how old is Dorothy Wordsworth. The answer given is: so, this implies, when did Dorothy Wordsworth die, and , if not, when was Dorothy Wordsworth born. And again it can drill down into this: what is implied by when was Dorothy Wordsworth born. Answer: so, this implies, get the Dorothy Wordsworth page from Wikipedia; and, if not, reply sorry, I don't know Dorothy Wordsworth; otherwise, get the born date; and if not, say so; otherwise, reply ok, Dorothy Wordsworth was born on whatever-it-was.

Sure, LLMs are engaging, but what do they do that we don't want? Perhaps the question is to ask what don't they provide that we [really do] want? Transparent algorithms for one... www.bcs.org/articles-opi...

#Poetry #PoetryCommunity #SunsetOfTheMind
Sunset Of The Mind Sinking, horizon bound, subtle sun setting squints through grey cloud, becomes this short day’s deathly shroud, bringing end to daily struggle. Producing as yet unnamed colour, this brilliant, heavenly show. Ordinary skies undergo changes ready to discover. This fleeting moment, uncaptured by medium of film or brush. Beauty! We can but only blush. Shy not! Yet nature’s not flattered! This moment swift as all moments to fragile memory commit. Now faded image we transmit, vivid, by artists and poets. @BardPharts 26 January 2026
