Ask HN: What will you be doing for the next 10 years?

I've been retired for the last two years, it's been transformative. I've lost a lot of weight, I've greatly improved my cardiovascular fitness, I've finally treated my ADHD, I've learned Latin to an intermediate level, I've made new friends, I've gotten into 19th century literature, and as a life-long autodidact I have never been happier.

Ultimately, I want to give something back to the world in the next 10 years. I've benefited from so much open source and public domain stuff, I'd like to create something of use for others. Right now I'm really interested in AI assisted language learning pedagogy, and I'm working on an essay about how I use an ancient text editor, GNU Emacs, along with gptel and some other tools to help me me study an ancient language.

I've been getting into AI, philosophy of mind, etc. I've long been a fan of Dennett, Pat Churchland, etc. and am "deeper diving" that and recently started working on an extension of Dennett's multiple drafts model, where I more explicitly collapse the distinction between percepts (sensory information/qualia) and beliefs (mental concepts etc). I'm in my mid-40's and work in software as day job but my true passion is philosophy of mind and am starting to work on that more seriously. Hope this to be a long-term enterprise.
