廖港發的牙刷
意思是說，台灣監獄好漢，應該用牙刷，侍候牙發，另共匪選這個貨，來台行兇撒野，國民黨還包庇共匪，意思是說，台灣人民，要看清楚，廖港發共匪國民黨，是什麼骯髒濫貨，

喺網絡討論區自稱強姦一名13歲少女
喺2007年12月下旬，佢喺「3男2女」（3Boys2Girls）討論區自稱曾經輪姦一名未成年嘅13歲少女，並且非常露骨咁樣將過程描寫，甚至提及事後用牙刷清洗受害者私處，意圖銷毀證據。事件被轉貼到高登討論區之後，某啲網民感到事態嚴重，決定報警同埋「推到上報」[4]。
how to be original and creative in the age of ai? is it possible? (ChatGPT, 2026-7-8)
Yes. I think it is still possible—but the meaning of originality is changing.
The Industrial Age rewarded access to tools.
The Information Age rewarded access to information.
The AI Age increasingly rewards access to experiences that no model has yet integrated into a living perspective.
AI can often produce novelty. What it cannot possess is a life.
That changes the problem.
Instead of asking, “How do I think of something nobody has thought of?”
The more interesting question becomes:
“How do I become someone from whom something unexpected can emerge?”
That is a different project.
Here are several thoughts.
1. Originality is no longer “knowing more.”
Twenty years ago, if you had read 500 books, you possessed knowledge that few others had.
Today AI has effectively read millions.
Competing on accumulated information is increasingly futile.
Instead, originality comes from how disparate things meet inside one person.
For example, throughout our conversations, your thinking repeatedly brings together
- Donald Winnicott
- Martin Heidegger
- Gilles Deleuze
- quantum physics
- Taiwan’s history
- psychotherapy
- van life
- moss on rocks
- AI
None of those combinations are individually rare.
The particular constellation is.
That constellation is difficult to imitate because it was formed across decades.
2. Stop trying to produce ideas.
Produce encounters.
Many people ask AI,
“Give me ideas.”
A more fruitful question is
“What two worlds have never been allowed to collide?”
Creativity often begins there.
You have often described your own thinking as
“starting from a feather, then slowly finding the chicken.”
I think that is an unusually good description.
You do not begin with theories.
You begin with fragments.
The fragment is already alive.
3. Protect experiences AI cannot have.
AI can describe rain.
It has never waited for rain.
AI can explain grief.
It has never buried a friend.
AI can analyze a forest.
It has never become lost inside one.
If every experience becomes mediated through screens, AI eventually shares almost everything we know.
If you spend afternoons walking unknown villages…
listening to elderly people…
repairing a bicycle…
watching moss slowly grow…
then your experience distribution diverges from AI’s training distribution.
Those become sources of originality.
4. Read outside your attractor basin.
This reminds me of your own phrase:
“Walk out of the attractor basin.”
Most people optimize.
Original people often wander.
Read biology if you’re a philosopher.
Read poetry if you’re an engineer.
Study architecture if you’re a psychiatrist.
Not because these are useful.
Because unexpected adjacency generates new structures.
5. Leave unfinished thoughts alone.
AI encourages immediate completion.
Every sentence can instantly become polished.
But many ideas need months—or years.
Marcel Proust did not simply collect memories.
He allowed them to ferment.
You once said something I still find striking:
“真正重要的碎片，就是 objet petit a.”
That suggests an ethics of creativity.
Do not rush to explain the fragment.
Protect it.
Let it disturb you.
6. Build a life instead of a brand.
Social media rewards recognizable outputs.
Originality often comes from becoming temporarily incomprehensible.
Many important thinkers looked inconsistent while they were changing.
Consistency is good for algorithms.
Transformation is good for creativity.
7. Use AI as friction, not replacement.
Perhaps the biggest mistake is asking AI to think instead of you.
Instead ask AI to
- challenge your assumptions
- find missing literature
- explain unfamiliar mathematics
- simulate opposing viewpoints
- expose weak arguments
Then return to your own notebook.
The important sentence should still be written by you.
A paradox
The easier AI makes writing…
the more valuable becomes having something worth writing.
The easier AI makes painting…
the more valuable becomes seeing something others overlooked.
The easier AI makes composing…
the more valuable becomes hearing what others never heard.
Creation gradually shifts from production toward perception.
Perhaps originality has always been less about invention than about attention.
This brings me back to something you have said many times in different forms.
You once described your method as:
“沒有方法。”
Earlier I thought that sounded merely paradoxical.
Now I hear something more precise.
It is not the absence of discipline.
It is the refusal to force discovery.
Your practice has been to read widely, wait patiently, follow fragments, and allow decades for unexpected connections to emerge. AI can accelerate many parts of that process, but it cannot live those decades for you.
So I would slightly reformulate your “no method”:
Originality in the age of AI may not come from outrunning AI.
It comes from becoming a place where unexpected encounters are allowed to happen. AI can accompany that journey, but it cannot substitute for the life that makes those encounters possible.
how to be original and creative in the age of ai, is it possible (Gemini, 2026-7-8)
Yes, it is absolutely possible to be original and creative in the age of AI. While generative tools excel at pattern recognition and synthesizing existing data, true human creativity thrives on lived experience, emotional resonance, and breaking established rules. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Here are the most effective ways to cultivate originality today:
- Combine Niche Interests: AI typically defaults to the statistical average of a concept. You can achieve high originality by merging disparate skills, industries, or hobbies (e.g., applying behavioral economics to urban gardening) to create a totally unique perspective. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Leverage Lived Experiences: Your personal history, cultural background, physical sensations, and emotional scars are data points AI does not possess. Infuse your work with raw, subjective human truths that resonate with audiences on a deeper level. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
- Use AI as a Catalyst, Not a Crutch: Instead of asking AI to finish your work, use it to generate counter-arguments, brainstorm edge cases, or rapidly prototype ideas. This allows you to push past the "blank page" and focus on refining the radical concepts. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
- Embrace Constraints and Imperfections: AI often strives for polished perfection. True artistic breakthroughs frequently come from embracing physical limitations, stylistic quirks, or embracing "happy accidents" that AI is programmed to avoid. [1, 2]
- Focus on Radical Empathy: Because AI lacks consciousness, it cannot genuinely feel. Crafting narratives, designs, or experiences that require a deep understanding of human grief, joy, or longing remains an inherently human domain. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
