There's huge room out there for developing an app for readily having conversations with yourself. Lots of people have tried hacking systems together with pen & paper or elsewhere. Sometimes I just do a doc/email with normal text + italics... #ThingsIWantToExist https://t.co/DyS43weh7T

but it would be cool to have a system for really quickly switching between voices using hotkeys or something, and having them colorize differently could build this from a chat app demo in like 1h https://t.co/KRfwtYLP8R

what else would I like to see here? I mean the main puzzle is how to get to a good-enough MVP that a bunch of people use it and you can see what's missing. and I literally think you could do that in a day or so

ah yeah! @snarayan built @antar_app for this, which got decent uptake (>10k downloads on android) I downloaded it a long time ago but I've kind of forgotten about it for some reason. I prefer to chat on my computer (or at least with a keyboard) I'll pin it to my homescreen now!

ooh! what if it had an extra button to pull in a random response from <something>? could be... - GPT-3 Alan Watts - an actual Alan Watts quote - prompts from therapists etc - your own previous messages/notes that are relevant somehow - ELIZA rogerian psychotherapist ai from 1966

such prompts could be good for getting unstuck or just increasing the sense of engagement like sometimes you bounce away from a chat but you come back when the person replies. this could do that if you leave for a minute without ending the session! I think that'd be v powerful

would also be good, from a coherence perspective, to be able to pin certain messages as items that you want to review can help integration to regularly look at previously-unconscious things you've uncovered

what else would be cool to have in an app like this? & go check out https://t.co/5aNGrMEPWl & let @snarayan what you think!
