Thanks for the insightful post Arun! I've been using Bolt for prototyping ideas and Claude to learn about topics (AI included). If you're familar with some level of programming, Bolt is amazing to quickly communicate ideas. I found it interesting that sometimes it deteriorates over tim and am still playing with it. With Claude, I'm tailoring my learning and compiling small customized notebooks on topics that follow my train of thought as opposed to a textbook with a fixed list of topics and quite enjoying that.
One question: you mention tools will get better every 6 months; is there a reason for that time frame? Thanks!
Arun, you are on an impressive mission to increase your agency and spread AI knowledge. Found myself wanting more of the typical Arun posts with great details on how to!
I am very curious why Claude is not part of your paid tools list? I have recently been using it to dig deeper into technical questions and find it better than Perplexity Pro or Chatgpt Plus.
Also, loved the Ikigai concept, definitely going to try (though not setting high expectations, haha).
Not for Everyone. But maybe for you and your patrons?
Hello Arun,
I hope this finds you in a rare pocket of stillness.
We hold deep respect for what you've built here—and for how.
We’ve just opened the door to something we’ve been quietly handcrafting for years.
Not for mass markets. Not for scale. But for memory and reflection.
Not designed to perform. Designed to endure.
It’s called The Silent Treasury.
A sanctuary where truth, judgment, and consciousness are kept like firewood—dry, sacred, and meant for long winters.
Where trust, vision, patience, and stewardship are treated as capital—more rare, perhaps, than liquidity itself.
The two inaugural pieces speak to a quiet truth we've long engaged with:
1. Why we quietly crave for 'signal' from rare, niche sanctuaries—especially when judgment must be clear.
2. Why many modern investment ecosystems (PE, VC, Hedge, ALT, SPAC, rollups) fracture before they root.
These are not short, nor designed for virality.
They are multi-sensory, slow experiences—built to last.
If this speaks to something you've always felt but rarely seen expressed,
perhaps these works belong in your world.
Both publication links are enclosed, should you choose to enter.

Warmly,
The Silent Treasury
Sanctuary for strategy, judgment, and elevated consciousness.
