Reading AI responses

Pre-face: include lots of venting, do not continue further if you don't want to hear.

Topic: AI producing too much text that is difficult to absorb. The more issues/iterations I raise, the more complicated and over-egnieered the solutions. I force myself to use AI tools minimum 4-5 hours a day, its especially hard at my stage in learning. Mental health is in decline.

Diagnosis: I am a non-technical user, which is likelky contributing to much of my pain using AI.

AI responses, plans, reviewing plans with so many complex ideas and procedures.....following into the trap of allowing the AI to build while i miss key assumptions.

Impact: I am tired, constantly researching and asking for clarification or simplication. Or review this plan, make it better loop....I don't want to say Im going to wait for Mythos 9.7 before I can be effective. I know other non-technical users are suceeding and I need tips to join you.

How to help non-technicals: I assume many non-technical users on here same experience as me. If i was native to software and technology terms, maybe its easier to skim and direct the AI. Mostly, the AI is not getting much direction because I am so consumed by endless comprehension exercises. Funnily enough, when I super focus and actually absorb it's output, I often realize it's just "strangely" worded. Not illogical, because the AI is very logical. Just not absorbable.

I prompt "explain this simply to a 10 year old" like 50 times a day. No joke. Another one of my strategies is asking for Mermaid flow diagrams in obsidian, pre-facing every operating model file. This has helped a lot...any other tips?

Who has actually experienced, but evolved past this stage?

Lightbulb moment: I think I need to build a LLM WikkI with a pipeline that parses all my chat conversations into it....
