That is true, but use use a humans-as-llms equivalenceish, because they are taking that prompt, because each person is an individually trained llm.
Now within our GUI/TUI to the llm (which we all use now) could just add a couple of extra steps to simulate that diversity.
Are we making an image? If yes, and is this the first prompt in the convo? neat! List 5 elements that would make up this image. Now for each of those 5 elements, make a list of 10 possible choices. Now randomly select from each one. Now include those elements on top of the original prompt.
I got claude to generate 10 of these as a prompt transformation, and i think they would be suitably random to postpone the diversity collapse for a while.
I'm not pretending the problem goes away, but these kinds of creativity varying steps I think will become hidden steps in our LLM systems very soon.
The same thing happens when doing any group work in a classroom or workplace. One of the facilitators job is to add in randomness and guides to remind people to make different choices rather than the obvious ones.
