The novelty part is a hard one - but maybe in many cases we could substitute something else for it? If an idea promises to beat state of the art in some field - and it is not yet actively researched - then it is novel.
But most promising would be to use the Dessalles theories.
By the way - this could be a classic example of this day dreaming - you take two texts: one by Gwern and some article by Dessalles (I read "Why we talk" - a great book! - but maybe there is some more concise article?) and ask LLM to generate ideas connecting these two.
In this particular case it was my intuition that connected them - but I imagine that there could be an algorithm that could find this connection in a reasonable time - some kind of semantic search maybe.
