AI and the Meaning of Life

# In my treatment plan, I highlight something I call a meaning-making project.;

The brain responds most strongly to coherent, long-term engagement – not to isolated activities. Therefore, my main project is a central part of my treatment plan.

Why a meaning-making project?

Research shows that cognitive stimulation that is meaningful, social, and structured has a stronger effect on the brain's resilience than passive entertainment or random exercises. A project that requires planning, problem-solving, and communication activates multiple brain regions simultaneously.

My project: This knowledge base

I have chosen to build this website – a knowledge base about living with Alzheimer's – as my main project. It gives me:

Cognitive stimulation

• Writing articles requires research, structuring, and formulation

• Technical problem-solving (web design, AI tools)

• Continuous learning about my disease

Social connection
