Just for calibration, what are the other things you’ve tried? I’ve tried alternative search engines like https://millionshort.com, link aggregators/curators like reddit/slashdot/hackernews/etc, manually curated lists.
(I’ve been playing around with it for a bit and it seems quite good to me too)

So their reported beliefs track a convenient consistent worldview, but they don’t use the vast majority of their practical knowledge and life experience, and can’t change their mind when it’s not socially convenient to do so.
The first half I understand the reasoning of, but what’s the reasoning for “and can’t change their mind when it’s not socially convenient to do so”? Specifically, is this saying they can’t change their publicly reported beliefs vs their privately held ones when it’s not socially convenient?
Fox-Hedgehog doesn’t fit well imo. It’s more something like RISC (K) vs CISC (T).

To me, the difference between the colloquial term “brainstorming” and this site’s term “babble and prune” is the intentional choice to split the activity into two phases: an unfiltered idea generation phase followed by a filtering/editing phase. Emphasis on “unfiltered”, for the anxiety-reducing and writer’s block circumventing reasons you gave.
I’d be grateful for an update down the line, if you come across any unexpected benefits/shortcomings.

Related: seems like some search engines are already integrating LLMs:
- One approach is directly providing links; see https://metaphor.systems, brought up yesterday @ https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/rZwy6CeYAWXgGcxgC/metaphor-systems
- Another is LLM summarization of search engine provided links; https://you.com/search?q=what+was+the+recent+breakthrough+in+fusion+research%3F as an example
