It's an interesting premise, but how many people

- are capable of evaluating the LLM's output to the degree that they can identify truly unique insights

- are prompting the LLM in such a way that it could produce truly unique insights

I've prompted an LLM upwards of 1,000 times in the last month, but I doubt more than 10 of my prompts were sophisticated enough to even allow for a unique insight. (I spend a lot of time prompting it to improve React code.) And of those 10 prompts, even if all of the outputs were unique, I don't think I could have identified a single one.

I very much do like the idea of the day-dreaming loop, though! I actually feel like I've had the exact same idea at some point (ironic) - that a lot of great insight is really just combining two ideas that no one has ever thought to combine before.
