The long game (5–10 years)
This isn’t a short sprint. The ecosystem is designed to be built and understood over years, not in one sitting—so it’s okay if it feels ‘big’ at first.
InsightLab · Episode 2
A founder-style intro: the long-term vision, the multi-disciplinary background behind it, and why scientific rigor matters.
In this second intro episode, I explain what SWB-AI is really trying to become: a long-term ecosystem, built over 5–10 years, not a quick one-off project. If it feels “too big” at first, that’s normal—this is meant to be digested over time.
I also share why I believe I can build it: I’m coming from multiple disciplines (law, industrial engineering, data/analytics, and hands-on work with AI tools). My goal is to connect structured thinking with real human problems—conflict, negotiation, decision-making, and inner dialogue.
Finally, I talk about scientific standards: why quality research matters, why paper inflation and academic favoritism can damage progress, and why we should value meaningful work over noise. I close with a simple promise: I’ll keep translating complex ideas into practical guidance as the project grows.
This isn’t a short sprint. The ecosystem is designed to be built and understood over years, not in one sitting—so it’s okay if it feels ‘big’ at first.
Most people speak from a single specialty. My angle is to connect multiple lenses—technical, analytical, and human—into one coherent structure.
I outline the core pillars behind the project: law, engineering, data/analytics, and practical use of AI tools—each contributing a different type of clarity.
AI tools reduce friction: building, learning, prototyping, and organizing knowledge becomes dramatically faster—without needing a traditional ‘big company’ setup.
Not every paper deserves attention. I emphasize high-quality, impact-driven research and why weak standards create a lot of wasted time and misleading ‘progress.’
I discuss how publishing volume has exploded and how favoritism/nepotism can corrupt outcomes—science should stay strict and conflict-free.
Sports become a metaphor: progress requires recovery, nutrition, and consistency. The same discipline applies to building yourself—and building this ecosystem.
