Episode notes
AI As A Creative Medium
- Dennis used AI as a creative medium, developing persona protocols and oblique strategies to move beyond simple prompts.
- He frames AI work as human-AI protocols focusing on the human in the loop for creative outcomes.
AI Tool For Legal Recordkeeping
- Tom built a tool that analyzes global legal record-keeping rules and classifies citations as relevant, irrelevant, or needing further research.
- The tool cut citation-research time by roughly 20–30% while still requiring human validation for edge cases.
From Collection To Knowledge Forge
- Dennis evolved his second-brain into a Knowledge Forge using Google Notebook LM for curation and synthesis instead of mere collection.
- He curates outputs via session "needles" and feeds refined material into Notebook LM for cross-querying.
