AI doesn't just help me do, it also helps me think

A user with ADHD finds AI, specifically Claude, invaluable for thinking and brainstorming, not just for task execution. They developed a local context system using markdowns and Obsidian to store ideas, decisions, and to-dos within topic-specific folders. This system allows Claude to load relevant information when revisiting a topic, eliminating the need for constant re-explanation and facilitating a more efficient thought process.

Unlike typical AI use for task completion, this user leverages Claude as a thinking partner, developing a unique local context system with Markdown and Obsidian to manage complex thought processes.
