Transcript: I just went for a walk. It was pleasant. Good break. And I feel slower now, which is probably a good thing. Probably needed that. Kind of just gave me time to, you know, be like, everything is okay. Everything's all right. Still things to do. Things are not perfect. With, with the intention site, but that's like more, more or less. Okay. And I discovered a lot today so far already. And a lot of it has to do with just, well, it's remarkable. The LLM is like generally good at categorizing things, but getting the right prompt for say an intention is actually quite difficult. It's not as straightforward as I expected it to be. Um, and a lot of it is due to just ambiguity. And I'm curious, like what level of specificity makes sense versus not. And I mean, maybe I even need to play with that a bit more than I have. Um, but a lot of it is leading me down the path of like, does this even make sense as a secondary app or is this built into the main thing? Cause effectively this is just a pipeline step. That's realistically like what I've done. So I've just built a pipeline step. And because of that, like it's making the whole thing feel like a bit strange. Like I could build this outside on this data set, but like realistically I, it makes more sense to build it on the burrito place site itself in a lot of ways. Um, so that's very curious to me. Um, what is the right way to go about that problem? Um, and I guess probably want to discuss it with John ideally. Um, yeah, it's very nice though, that walk. It's good.
The realization of the value in this application lies in its ability to perform searches quickly, efficiently, and accurately. There are multiple approaches to enhance its functionality, with a focus on both data storage and the improvement of search capabilities, which is currently the most critical yet challenging aspect. Concerns exist about the app's method of aggregating all processed data, which feels inherently flawed, though it's being temporarily accepted for the valuable data it provides. This tension between a recognized need for development against the reluctance to proceed with an imperfect solution underscores the complexity of the problem at hand.
I had a profound two-hour call with Jordan at 9 a.m., discussing a range of topics including the exciting potential of language models, which he called "word calculators." Jordan and I agreed on the importance of solidifying a good intention to create a compelling demo that deeply explores the vision of our project. We also touched on self-expression and the value of using the platform as a "playground" to honestly express oneself without worrying about the audience. Lastly, we delved into the dynamic nature of intentions and how they evolve over time, along with the idea that AI could support individuals by acting as an executive function override during moments of weakness.
I had a beneficial conversation with John, who helped me work through my thoughts and appreciated his support in allowing me to talk things out. We discussed building a simple intention website that John sketched, considering the addition of GPS functionality due to its importance for intention-based actions, and the possibility of an AI assisting with small tasks based on one's intentions. Despite my aversion to login pages, John made me realize it's acceptable to ask for passwords on a website, and that a solution to eliminate logins can be addressed later. This talk has energized me for the week, and I'm excited about working on this intention website project, hopeful about committing to it longer term, and grateful for the sense of direction it provides.

The speaker is reflecting on their experience with making audio burrito posts, noting that it often requires multiple attempts to get into the correct mindset—similar to drafting written posts. They're grappling with the challenge of monologuing without a clear understanding of the audience, as they are aware that at least John and CJ will hear it, but uncertainty about the wider audience affects their ability to communicate effectively. This creates a 'contextual membrane shakiness' as the speaker finds the lack of audience boundaries difficult to navigate, which they recognize may vary among different people. The speaker concludes by deciding to end the current note and start a new one.

I fulfilled my 2024 goal of deepening relationships tonight. I rode my bike looking for puddles to splash in after the rain, but found none. Instead, I had a rewarding conversation with Claire and Sam at Ichiban. This interaction was very satisfying.

The author contemplates the process of converting an audio note into a transcript, then summarizing it on their "burrito" page. They express a desire to adjust the summarization voice to better represent themselves on the page. Recognizing that this feature may not have widespread appeal, the author nonetheless sees value in providing users with controls to personalize their "burrito." The concept of allowing users to fine-tune their experience is seen as an intriguing possibility.
