Happy to share! Now I'm exploring AI coding agent-Cursor to work with Obsidian's database (hard to use...🥲). Also looking into AI plugins more user-friendly for non-coders to manage personal databases. Maybe I'll try to develop something myself - if you've got any suggestions, definitely hit me up!

You're a total pro! An awesome way to use Obsidian for research - thanks for sharing! I love its backlinks and knowledge graph. With other AI tools or plugins, I think we could turn Obsidian's database into a researcher's "second brain" - like a digital twin to really boost our research game.

Thanks a million! So, how do you usually use the Zotero plugin in Obsidian? I'm wondering how it's different from just using the Zotero software on its own.

Inspired by Jakob Nielsen's iconic 10 Usability Heuristics, I've crafted a fresh set of principles tailored specifically for AI product design. These guidelines carve out a new path distinct from traditional products. Stay tuned for an in-depth look at each one in upcoming posts.

Because forms shift with needs, but principles endure. In today's whirlwind AI evolution, exploring timeless principles is far more impactful than chasing fleeting forms. If this gets too technical, just give me a nudge.

So, with AI applications skyrocketing, what does the future hold for human-computer synergy? I recently revisited Norman's classic, "The Design of Everyday Things," sparking some thoughts I’d love to share. The book champions user-centered design principles over rigid design forms. Why?

Friends often muse about the ultimate AGI, and honestly, who really knows? Sci-fi has long painted AGI as a divine-like force, transcending form and residing in omniscience. Gods don’t need shapes—they're everywhere, knowing everything, skipping the need for human chatter.

Absolutely. Curious about how it is in your field. In the HCI and AI fields where I work, quite a few people work simultaneously in academia and industry. For example, they may hold a position at a university while also own their own company and engage in work that combines academia and industry.

Map my complete research identity. List all elements: methodologies, disciplines, skills, interests. Research shows those with more identity elements build larger, more diverse networks. This translates directly to more collaboration opportunities and greater visibility.

With research funding cuts under the current administration, digital networking isn't just for visibility—it's survival. Federal research budgets are shrinking and priorities are shifting rapidly. Traditional paths relying solely on publications and grants have become increasingly unsustainable.

Yeah. The notification system is kind of helpful. And I agree that I need to face with the fact that I cannot read the papers all.🥲 But still dreams about having a subscription based research interest maybe more accurate and condense (better to be customized by myself!).

Thanks for sharing! Obsidian is a fantastic tool for management. I am using Notion for similar use, but still feel like exhausted when see so many papers in my email ( from various resources). Now I am considering to focus my attention to researchers I am interested in and follow them attentively.

Thanks for sharing! zotero is good for paper management! I am very interested in AI tools to prioritize impacts. I would like to receive a daily digest of creation for me to easily focus. Now the thing is how to define the criteria and the resources. How to evaluate the impact of a new paper? 🤔

I'm curious how you all efficiently keep up with research developments? Are there any tools or methods(especially emerging one with AI) that can:
- Make smart recommendations based on research interests
- Sort papers by quality/impact
- Consolidate multiple sources into one manageable stream
