I don't think that was how he changed.

And I think that William's essay explains the actual thing that changed and why it is a really big deal.

Yeah.

I think one of the interesting things about all this, which I was going to save till the end, but which I guess I'm just going to drop in right now, is that what you are given in a piece of art can often...

conflict with what the person who made the art was actually trying to say.

And this happens because oftentimes when you're writing, especially something this long, your true soul gets injected into it, even...

even if you didn't realize that's what was happening.

And so I think when the narrator says, you know, I need to level up my game in this way.

And when Eliezer says that this is how Harry grew, I'm going to invoke death of the author here.

I think Eliezer is wrong.

I think Eliezer actually wrote the story that William is going to be talking about in this essay, despite his best intentions.

And I think the thing that Eliezer actually wrote is better than what he intended to write.

And it is amazing.

I really want to ask Ku if he's okay with me taking his essay and keeping all the, you know,

AI reading of the majority of it, but anywhere where there's a quote from HP Moore, just substituting in my narration from the podcast.

Yes, it'd be a ton of work, but maybe he would let me do it, because, I don't know, I can find the time to do it.

Yeah, oh, yes.

If it were you who had been killed by that troll, it would never even occur to Hermione Granger to do as you are doing for her.

It would not occur to Draco Malfoy, nor to Neville Longbottom, nor to McGonagall or any of your precious friends.

There is not one person in this world who would return to you the care that you are showing her.
