Seeking Beta Users for LessWrong-Integrated LLM Chat
Comment here if you'd like access. (Bonus points for describing ways you'd like to use it.)
A couple of months ago, a few of the LW team set out to see how LLMs might be useful in the context of LW. It feels like they should be at some point before the end, maybe that point is now. My own attempts to get Claude to be helpful for writing tasks weren't particularly succeeding, but LLMs are pretty good at reading a lot of things quickly, and also can be good at explaining technical topics.
So I figured just making it easy to load a lot of relevant LessWrong context into an LLM might unlock several worthwhile use-cases. To that end, Robert and I have integrated a Claude chat window into LW, with the key feature that it will automatically pull in relevant LessWrong posts and comments to what you're asking about.
I'm currently seeking beta users.
Since using the Claude API isn't free and we haven't figured out a payment model, we're not rolling it out broadly. But we are happy to turn it on for select users who want to try it out.

Oh I didn’t see this! I’d like access, in part because its pretty common I try to find a LessWrong post or comment, but the usual search methods don’t work. Also because it seems like a useful way to explore the archives.
