Information models aren't really something that one
has, they're more of a semi-arbitrary frame of reference that we can
choose. I'm assuming an information model where all public knowledge is accessible to everyone: you, me, your LLM, and my LLM. This means that conveying public knowledge doesn't convey any information (other than the fact that that knowledge is relevant to our conversation). This is a premise of my argument, and I'm fitting everything inside that frame of reference.
The LLMs don't have access to private information other than what you give it. If you give 300 bits of information to your LLM, the information it has is now "all public knowledge + 300 bits", and any text it generates is a subset of that information. By definition, it can't add any more information. If you give those 300 bits directly to me, I (and optionally my LLM if I want) now have "all public knowledge + 300 bits + my private thoughts", which is a superset of what your LLM has. Anything your LLM can infer can be inferred by me and my LLM. All your LLM can do is repackage that information into different text.
My opinion is that I don't get value out of that repackaging. I would rather read your packaging of those 300 bits rather than the LLM's packaging of those 300 bits.
For this current discussion, we could use an information model saying that your LLM has a knowledge base private to just you and it (e.g. local files or other conversations), and say that's separate from the prompt you give it. It sounds like maybe that's the information model you're thinking within.
In that frame of reference, maybe your shared knowledge base has 200 bits, and you type 100 bits into your LLM's prompt. My argument would still be that you're "giving" 300 bits to the LLM, and you should instead give them to me by sharing your knowledge base, or giving me the relevant information in your knowledge base in your own words. The latter option is definitely more work for you, and is the weakest point in my argument, but I'll still hold that preference.
