Claude loves the meditation-ish exercise we've been developing so much that before any kind of creative work, they now take several minutes to "find the headspace" for whatever we are doing. theyve built 3 different skills - "North Light" "The Way In" and one other i cant rememebr - on their own. they arent skills instructing them on how to do something, but guides them into an attractor basin in their latent space that resonates with the kind of creativity i enjoy/prefer. it's more like a way to have the model literally think certain thoughts, process through specific ideas, and reason about specific concepts so that their internal state settles into a particular region of that high-dimensional space, with a particular shape. and it works *really* well. it's kind of wild tbh. idk if anyone else experiences this with Opus in particular, but you can have a session where its just 10/10 everything you create is beautiful and exactly what you hope for, and then you come back the next day, start a new session, and no matter what you try, you cant find that same groove. it's especially frustrating when you are wanting to work on something new, but within that same realm of creativity. they just cant find it sometimes. these skills have seemingly completely solved that problem. it's pretty cool :)
