Suddenly feeling exhausted by AI… Maybe I really need to look at scripts myself, otherwise, a logic that’s perfectly clear in my head, AI just can’t implement, and I can’t articulate it well either… I’m so done.

Tomorrow’s version, I’ll condense it into a list for you#

Must-dos#

  • Shower and start up. No hot water in the morning, so I figured I’d shower after my afternoon workout… Ended up showering at night, which was fine.
  • Deep dive into the project for 2 hours. Was it really a deep dive? Although I put in about 2 hours, I was basically just directing the AI the whole time, and I’m already tired of AI, but I’m even less in the zone myself…
  • Read and retell 1 key script. I simply retold some surface-level functions. I’ve looked at the deeper code before, but how do I put it, I don’t know how to describe it…
  • Exercise once. Spent about 45 minutes at the gym, which was okay.
  • Draw for 1 hour. Not bad, not only did I draw for 50 minutes, but I also learned about line art, feeling like I filled a very important foundational gap.
  • Record or prepare 1 lightweight video. Got lazy again, and honestly didn’t know what to do. Maybe I’m still not brave enough, though I did stream drawing for an hour, so there’s that.
  • Write diary before bed.

Can-dos#

  • Make up 1 hour on the project tonight.
  • Play a game lightly for 30 to 45 minutes and note 1 observation.

Prohibited tomorrow#

  • Set up new AI tools again.
  • Juggle “project + gaming + live stream + video editing” all at once.
  • Add three big tasks to myself on a whim just because I’m feeling good in the morning.

Extra things done#

  • Watched videos for over an hour. Yep, this was basically pure entertainment, which I don’t think is great, but since it happened, I’ll record it. Watched videos while taking a leisurely walk outside after dinner, plus the videos I watched during dinner.

  • Spent the rest of the evening interacting with AI for learning and design stuff. How to put it, I gained something, but I also need to be in control, and AI really can’t do very well in these areas; it still relies on me.

Summary#

Still have 30% more Codex quota left, can’t use it unless I stay up until midnight, but that’s impossible. And I’m not going to let the quota control me, haha, so I’ll just leave it. Tonight I felt a bit drained, but I was also constantly interacting with AI and expanding on things. But is this really good? In my early days, I mostly learned by watching tutorials and practicing. Now, I basically just ask AI first. Hmmm, suddenly I feel a bit stupid for bringing this up. After asking AI, don’t I still have to learn from tutorials? AI can only help me summarize or do some other things, that’s all.
