Hi everyone,

I curious about many things. An idea person, an ADHDler, with some autistic traits as well, super creative and likely a bit over the top intelligent, I have not yet seen these traits as innately positive, but as struggles that make life on planet earth more difficult.

Not because I see them as problematic, but more because my brain ticks in its very unique way. And while that is amazing and I believe our all brains tick in unique ways, I find it struggling at times to deal with it - constant inflows of ideas, constant questioning of everything and anything, constant prototyping and innovation, the love for diving deep on a challenging topic for hours and forgetting to eat and sometimes drink too, to then a couple hours later getting up and wondering what has happened to many more peculiar habits that seem rather weird for most people I share them with.

While I am searching for this one thing that lights up my day every day since years, running from one curiosity to the next, making sometimes rash decisions and questinoning them a second later, well, this is the newsletter to write about our peculiar minds - how is our brain structured, how does it work, what is needed to make more sense of that all with some ssprinkles of content about AI - another form of weird cognitive mindset, much more rational and trained by humans though and at some point maybe a way for us to strive as we can give away all these admin work activities.

Think of it as a cake. The layers are the layers of our human mind. I will open up each layer, one by one, to dig deeper into the science, our consciousness and what I find there. The topping, the white glacier is the AI. Sitting on top and adding another layer to the cake. A new one that may help us explain some of what is going on in our mind. Plus add some deep dive into the complexities of our mind.

And then the cherries on top? These are all the other topics, the creative ones, the crious ones, all those that I add that come to my mind and are not related to neither of these two topics. Because hey - with my cognitive brain stucture, it is a night mare to focus on only 2 topics. Really, I tried it, I inputted my whole life with roughly 100 different things I did into AI and tried to figure out what it shows me and I can tell you, it is not a good idea, because you end up with even more options and ideas.

So, here we are, have fun and let’s get started.
