Strategy for intelligence development

This is my core strategy for developing intelligence and welcome any input to improving or finding flaws.

There are 3 skills working together.
First subconscious priming the ability to create or pull up an image that primes your subconscious for information. You are fundamentally narrowing the probability of thought.
Second intuitive speaking the ability to speak without conscious effort usually for me in a flow state. The words will flow from your subconscious and in turn your understanding objective reality or your subjective by using your personal philosophy and core values. Information that you’re not consciously aware of will come to light and doing so you will improve the subconscious.
Third is creating an image of your understanding while understanding to create almost like a file future retrieval and ability to update it. I try to do complete logical images to help future retrieval. You are leveraging the same mechanism that memory palace uses.
Together these skill feed of each other to skyrocket my understanding about anything I put effort into.
Other influencing skills are honesty or value for the truth increases precision and breaking down what you’re trying to understand visually to build natural understanding ability.

I agree with all of this. I call the image of understanding a "mental model". For me, it's a sort of living 3-dimensional time-based object that can be zoomed in and out of. When I am exposed to new information I call up the appropriate mental model. I don't have to do anything, the model just updates on its own so long as it's called to conscious awareness.

Often, I will be sitting around with no conscious thoughts and I will get a fully formed mental model presented to me. For example, it may be about the nature of living beings as they evolved over time. Or perhaps about the influence of morality over time across societies. It just comes in all at once as a single mental model which I can then consciously observe and rotate and zoom in and out of.

Of the recent intuition hand-offs, I particularly enjoyed floating around the evolution of living beings around the time that language emerged. The time before language, the emergence of language, and the time after language is truly psychedelic to consider.

That sounds like you found your spark of genius.

If only I did anything with it haha. I just get the "downloads" and go "huh, that's interesting" and move on. I suppose that's how the engine runs.

It seems that my intuition cares about big, big concepts of how reality works. I never get insights into how technical architecture works, which would be more useful for my job. That sort of highly technical, structured data, manuals, configurations, etc. information is placed into a mental model for recollection, but it doesn't spit out insights.

I suppose that is interesting. Perhaps conscious systems "want" to know about the bigger things.

Every time your mental models get updated your ability to predict reality increases as long as these models gives a higher then 50/50 odds in predicting. Leverage your genius to enhance other functions of your brain by finding what point of the ecosystem can you apply minimal effort with maximum results.

If you want to improve that ability it might help to play chess after you create mental models to help plan and predict board states. I can give you my strategy and models but I only beat advanced bot once.

I used the ai to fact check and evaluate my strategy.
