To me, that has to be the start of a process, not the end of a process.

So I wanna go read and learn and watch.

One of the things I do where I do think AI can be interesting and it's like, you can go like,

Hey, I heard about this.

Tell me everything about this or point me to five articles that I can read about this.

Or are there good documentaries to watch?

You can use it to help you go down the rabbit hole, which I think is really important.

But then when you're doing that, how are you capturing and synthesizing this information?

Because I think a lot of times it just kind of goes in one ear and out the other for people.

Well, all is an interesting word.

How do you apply all that you read?

Well, part of wisdom is reading a book and knowing that 80% of this doesn't pertain to you at all or is not worth retaining, right?

That is no small feat either.

When I read a really, really amazing book, I might mark 10% of it.

10% would be a lot, right?

That would be like the greatest book I've ever read and marked up 10% of it.

So a lot of it is kind of filtration.

And then another part of it is putting things to go like, I never knew this word before.

I need to look it up.

I've never heard of that.
