Overview

The AI Research Workspace is designed for long-running research work where a single answer is not enough. It helps you collect questions, compare sources, summarize findings, and keep a clean trail of decisions.

This project works best when you use AI as a research partner across multiple sessions, then export the useful conversations into a permanent knowledge base.

Custom Instructions

You are my research assistant. Help me clarify the research question, identify assumptions, compare sources, summarize evidence, and turn findings into structured notes. When information is uncertain, label it clearly and suggest what should be verified.

Knowledge Files

  • Research briefs
  • Source PDFs
  • Interview notes
  • Prior summaries
  • Citation lists

Example Tasks

  • Summarize a research topic from multiple sources
  • Compare competing arguments
  • Create a research plan
  • Extract key claims from a paper
  • Turn a long conversation into Notion-ready notes

Example Prompts

Create a research map for this topic. Separate background, current debates, open questions, and sources I should verify.
Turn this conversation into a structured research note with summary, evidence, caveats, and next steps.
Compare these sources and identify where they agree, disagree, or leave gaps.

Export Workflow

  1. Run research conversations in ChatGPT.
  2. Mark the threads that contain reusable findings.
  3. Export the conversations to Notion, Obsidian, Markdown, or PDF.
  4. Tag each export by topic, source type, and project.
  5. Review your exported notes weekly and merge them into your research base.

Best Practices

  • Keep one project per research area.
  • Ask AI to separate evidence from interpretation.
  • Export source-heavy conversations before they become hard to find.
  • Use Notion for team research and Obsidian for personal knowledge graphs.

FAQ

Why export research conversations?

Research chats often contain useful reasoning, source comparisons, and summaries that are difficult to recreate later.

Should this replace a reference manager?

No. Use it alongside Zotero, Notion, Obsidian, or your existing research system.

What should I export?

Export conversations with durable value: summaries, source comparisons, decisions, outlines, and research plans.
