My hope is to eventually create a Useful model to describe the way we think. I plan to go through the different aspects that could be involved in this model incrementally over time, and eventually describe a structure for thought that may provide useful in day-to-day life.
“A useful model isn’t just something you know, as you know that an airplane is made of atoms. A useful model is knowledge you can compute in reasonable time to predict real-world events you know how to observe.” (Eliezer Yudkowsky, Rationality)
