Overview

A compiled archive of a historical series of blog posts, accompanied by an analysis of recurring themes, intellectual patterns, changes in thinking, and modern relevance.

Background or originating question

For a college course I had written a series of blog posts. I wanted to revisit them and have AI perform an analysis of the writings: what major themes occurred and how did the writing change over time?

What has been created

• The original blog posts as source material
• A catalog of the blog posts (AI-generated)
• An infographic showing the major themes and changes across the writings (AI-generated)
• An article which analyzes the materials

Current status

Key outcomes, themes, or findings

It was very interesting to see my own thoughts from almost 2 decades ago. Many of the recurring themes I had discussed are now hyper-relevant, particularly now with the entry & prevalence of AI tools & technologies.
