Increasingly common sequence for conceptual work:
(1) need to figure stuff out
(2) lots of Fable chats
(3) increasing confusion & frustration
(4) sit in chair and think & read w/o AI takes
(5) it all comes together

I feel the "no, that's wrong" reaction to seeing the AI give bad takes on my ideas is actually sometimes really helpful.

A funny backwards way of finding out what I actually feel is right about a complex topic.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

Tweet by Rudolf Laine describing a workflow for conceptual work involving AI chats followed by unaided thinking, with Nathan's own reply about how disagreeing with a bad AI take can reveal his real position.

Mariya I. Vasileva @mariyaivasileva For the last several weeks, I've been completely wrecking my sleep schedule spinning up research experiments with Claude. Finally, every research scientist and PhD candidate has something we've always dreamed of — our own minilab of research interns that will test out the viability of various ideas we never had the bandwidth to explore. Even when I'm trying to sleep, I find myself picking up a conversation to ask "just one more" open-ended question, which, without fail, pulls me down a multi-hour rabbit hole. An absolute intellectual rollercoaster. 9:58 AM · Mar 7, 2026 · 21.4K Views 21 replies, 19 reposts, 359 likes, 102 bookmarks Vivek Karmarkar @vivekkmkpinn · 14h I feel you! I'm in the same boat... It's such a real addiction... I find that my project gets 90% done, that's when model performance degrades and the home stretch is usually 1AM-4AM 😂🤣
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

A researcher describes Claude as enabling a "minilab of research interns" for open-ended exploration, with a reply comparing the late-night usage pattern to addiction. Relevant to how researchers experience working with Claude as a collaborator/tool, echoing the "coworker" reframe in Nathan's own notes.
