My point is largely based on that I think the LLM is going to do an incredibly poor job of this. Something like the Pearson readers, I think are fine, because they’re accomplishing this important thing while (a) preserving the literary merit (b) IDK, something about how this is marketed makes me think it will be aimed at people who should be developing their reading skills but want easier-than-adult-English level for whatever reason, not at places where it actually makes sense and is perfectly reasonable to have an easy-fied version.
My point was that Gatsby is perfectly readable for an adult reading level. If someone’s not at that level with English then fine. Can we compromise on the importance of preserving the important elements of the book, if we’re going to make a simplified version of it, instead of just having an LLM make a bad job of it and then pass off the result as something that’s going to do something for anybody if they read it?
For you.
JFC, is it really that hard for some people to see outside of themselves? 🤦♀️
Yeah maybe that’s fair
