Getting AI to “push back” is more valuable than simple generation. In Claude Code, I deliberately created a custom command called new-angle so the AI can help me find flaws or discover new angles.
For example, I previously wrote an essay called “The Life System of the Super Individual.” Using this custom command, Kimi K2 Thinking helped me analyze and expand it from multiple perspectives.
From a historical angle, it suggested I look to Renaissance merchants—successful liquidity needs a “cultural anchor.” The Medici created lasting value within liquidity through investments in art, architecture, and scholarship.
From a physics angle, traditional life is solid: rigid and stable, but lacking adaptability. The super individual is gas: highly free, but lacking structure. The truly ideal state may be liquid crystal: maintaining a certain degree of fluidity while preserving an orderly structure.
These reminders are very valuable to me.
