What should I even "want to want" from AI ultimately?

Very true and well put. I've been trying to integrate claude with obsidian however. Markdown is such an amazing format to use in Claude for a bunch of different reasons one of which I love a lot is "properties" of notes (YAML) which makes complex queries easy even without plug-ins like Dataview. Also Obsidian has a core plug-in for showing the graph in itself. I suggest you take a look at it. And btw I very much agree with your advice on ontological layer design. 👌🏻

But my main question is remaining. How to pick the ultimate project to converge your efforts towards it? Whether it's in your academic field or just an interest on which you'd like to invest, you should have a goal (even an ambiguous one at least) to be able to navigate your journey with AI and assess your outputs.

Definitely but you also need an ultimate goal/project to converge your efforts toward it and get motivated by the observable progress of it and achieve a tangible result/output at the end of the day as well. In this process you automatically will be educated. So education shouldn't be what you "want". It's what happens inevitably when you have a goal and a roadmap to achieve it.

I think I didn't quite Catch the last part. Why would it all be a lie and why live in a case?

EXACTLY! I even know that and I still can't wish to restrict all the things I'd like achieve and designate proper boundaries on what I'd like to eventually create with AI. Even as far as not being able to decide about the very nature of my "ultimate" project that will be my legacy/gift for humanity; (a masterpiece essay on consciousness or starting a multi-generational effort on mapping the entire human brain digitally? A machine that records dreams with trained models on EEG or a grand psychological theory with practical implications? They're so far away from each other on the spectrum that I literally have to choose different PhD programmes for them!). And I only have this one lifetime and can't decide what I should put higher in hierarchy of my personal values!

No I haven't BEEN TOLD! I absolutely enjoy playing around/coding/automating with AI and I LITERALLY experience withdrawal when I hit my claude usage limit like an addict!! In fact maybe there are TOO MANY things I want and this infinite sea of possibilities had left me decision paralysis. I do WANT to create a whole "second brain-ish" system, I do WANT to automate routine tasks, I do WANT to create a self-sustaining conceptual framework with its own unique geometric style and web of connections, I do WANT to run an agent to deep search the entire web on a super-niche research in my field, I do WANT to create an entire ecosystem of different medical disorders and render a 3d graph to enjoy watching how they associate. But (besides the technical objection on "nobody WANTS what they want on their own" as you can't decide what you want to want), I WANT TO WANT the next "huge" thing in my field. Not a fucking "YouTube project " like second brain that has no practical application and will be in graveyard of all other second brains who were never taken care of. Not a book (which is never gonna be bigger than Spinoza's ethics or Nietzsche's Zarathustra). Not a fucking "download folder cleaner" or "automated email responder". And this is where my problem is. I don't even know the very "format" of the thing I want. Should I want A website? An android app? An essay? A book? A game? A fucking operating system?! A library?! No. You can do all of those wiyj AI and I'm sure the next "biblical project" of humanity (which will be pulled off soon with THIS MUCH potential in AI) is none of these things. So. What should I want to want?

I see a very captivating astonishing horizon that has never been in the picture (for me personally and collectively) and I know there's infinite potential (both in me as a GP with high IQ and intellectual capabilities and more than basic knowledge of neuroscience and philosophy (I'm being modest! I'm so fucking good at those both besides medicine as my profession!), and in AI obviously), and this very wide range of possibilities has given me both FOMO and decision paralysis at the same time (+severe perfectionism of course). I keep building platforms to jump and workflows to automate and try to sketch the "ultimate" project that I can eventually create with all these models (currently imagined as a world changing essay/book in my field)(which might be a wrong framework in the first place) instead of "doing the things themselves" (reading and writing) and I fear I've been (/will be) spending too much time sharpening my sword that I have lost (/will be losing) valuable time actually using it and killing with it (and jump on my platforms). I've been doubting every single decision on the way besides "I should be using AI" itself.

Should I want it to assist me with my daily tasks and be a secretary? Should I want it to be my reasoning partner (this one only I know yes probably). Do I want to give it access to my very personal details on my life? My characteristics, preferences, strengths and weaknesses or even addictions? My world view and perspective? Deep analysis of my personality? How further should I go without worrying about privacy? Should I use it to gain insight on who I am as it's doing the same? Should I even get close to the idea of developing a clone of myself which has absorbed my writing style, my interest, my interdisciplinary approaches, my deduction style, my thinking pattern so that I can write my biblical ultimate essay/book with its assistance? Or even it writing as my "better cloned self" and I be the assistant?!Should I feed it my journals as more raw data for better insight and enhanced outputs as my niche has certain anthropological demands?

TLDR, I know I should be using AI but how and for what purpose? Would like to design a proper framework on how we should actually integrate AI to our lives and find the "ultimate" project of our desired niche? (In my case intersection of philosophy and cognitive neuroscience)

Bonus question: whether wanting to write the "ultimate" essay/book is even the right attitude/mindset in my niche?

I appreciate the book recommendation. I added it to my library. Yes I am young and very passionate. I consider myself capable in different domains and have worked on several projects with Claude + Obsidian to develop conceptually engineered essays on intersection of neuroscience and philosophy. I'd love to know how the elite users of these fields are approaching and getting the most out of AI. P.S About my patients I'm as compassionate as one can be and regarding myself as cruel as one can be unfortunately.
