I’m not sure the 300-bit → 1,000-bit framing applies in all instances. The 300 bits may be a compressed cue to a much fuller idea. The AI can combine that cue with its prior knowledge to help reconstruct what the prompter was trying to express, with the prompter then verifying whether it’s right. Without the relevant prior knowledge for reconstruction, or the prompter for verification, it becomes much harder to know whether you’ve reconstructed the intended idea.
