Here's something that's been sitting with me. Da Vinci painted. He dissected cadavers to understand muscle and bone. He designed war machines, studied the flight of birds, drew maps, composed riddles, engineered canals. Nobody told him to specialize. Nobody handed him a LinkedIn headline and asked him to pick one lane before people would take him seriously. He wasn't unusual for his time in having many interests. Michelangelo sculpted, painted, wrote poetry, designed buildings. Hildegard von Bingen composed music, wrote on medicine and botany, had visions, ran a monastery. The Renaissance wasn't a golden age of geniuses who happened to be multipotential — it was a culture that hadn't yet decided curiosity needed to be narrowed down to be legitimate. We inherited a different culture. One where "what do you do" expects a single answer, where switching interests reads as flakiness instead of range, where a resume with too many threads gets quietly filtered out before a human ever sees it. And now AI shows up and, in theory, should make this easier — it can help you learn almost anything, fast. But for a lot of us, it hasn't felt like relief. It's felt like standing in front of a thousand open doors with no more clarity than before about which one is actually yours. More access to everything didn't resolve the question. It just made the question louder. That's the part I keep coming back to: the problem was never that we have too many interests. It's that we never had a system for integrating them into something coherent — and now we have infinite doors and still no system. So here's what I'm curious about: If Leonardo da Vinci woke up in 2026 — with AI, with the internet, with all of it — what do you think he'd actually be doing? Would he even have a "job title"? Would he be building something, or would he be just as overwhelmed as the rest of us by how many directions are suddenly available? And a harder question, for you specifically: which Renaissance figure do you secretly recognize yourself in — and what's the one thing stopping you from actually building the way they did?
