It's interesting because I have had a similar breakthroughs by using Bing to help organize and simplify my thoughts. I have Pure-O - a mental variant of obsessive compulsive disorder where I ruminate compulsively about things that concern me. But often I can't converge on a solution. Writing has often helped in the past, but sometimes it can't help. In those times, I just write and write and write and never reach a solution - in the ruminant state I seem to struggle to extract larger insights from the ruminations. That's where AI can help - not just in boilerplate production, but in editorial input, and in looking up and brainstorming potential solutions. When I put my writings together with the help of AI, I can do a number of useful things: 1. Bing can extract and merge key ideas that come up frequently in my rumination 2. Bing can help me identify and describe the values my ideas represent 3. Bing can summarize and help me understand the nature of the conflict 4. Bing can help me brainstorm and organize resolutions 5. Bing can even look up methods for understanding and solving the problem Once I have the simplified, abstracted, and actionized version of my ruminations, I notice two things: 1. The pressure to ruminate about the conflict evaporates 2. My thoughts on the issue become clear, calm, and reflective 3. The reflection moves to my values and options 4. There is no more hesitation and splitting of hairs 5. I can finally pick a resolution to the conflict I encourage you to experiment with AI as more than a boilerplate generator. I encourage you to see whether it can help you: 1. write out complex and painful thoughts 2. engage them in ways you're currently struggling to do 3. refine and simplify them into clear and powerful values and facts 4. brainstorm nuanced solutions to conflicting emotions I consider this similar to writing with a skilled and caring helper or counselor. Moreover, there is evidence (both scientific and personal) that the AI guidance teaches and renews the skills I need to perform the writing process on my own. I see it as a powerful extension of the writing technique, not a replacement.
