I'll help you create a research tool to understand what's draining you at work! Let me first check what tools are available, then suggest some creative exercise options.

Perfect! Now I understand your research question: "What aspects of your workday are draining you, even on days that aren't objectively busy?"

This is a fascinating problem space. Let me break down the key dimensions I see:

Core Research Question: What specific elements of work create energy drain vs. energy gain, independent of workload volume?

Key Dimensions to Explore:

1. Task Types - Different kinds of work activities and their energy impact
2. Interaction Patterns - How different types of human interactions affect you
3. Environment & Context - Physical and situational factors
4. Time & Flow - How timing, interruptions, and focus states impact energy
5. Cognitive Load - Mental effort vs. energy drain relationship

Here are 3 creative exercise options I'd like to suggest for capturing this data:

Option 1: "Energy Flow Mapping" 🌊

A visual timeline where you drag different work activities onto an energy curve throughout your day. Activities become small tokens when dragged, and you place them on a flowing line that goes from "Energizing" at the top to "Draining" at the bottom. The timeline shows morning to evening, and you can see patterns of energy peaks and valleys.

Option 2: "Work Activity Ecosystem" 🎯

A circular ecosystem where you drag work activities from a palette into different energy zones (energizing, neutral, draining). Similar activities cluster together and show relationships. You can also drag "context cards" (like "interruptions," "time pressure," "alone time") onto activities to show how context changes their energy impact.

Option 3: "The Energy Balance Scale" ⚖️

An interactive balance scale where you drag work elements onto either the "Gives Energy" or "Takes Energy" side. The scale tips based on your placements, and you can adjust the "weight" of each element by making the tokens bigger or smaller. Different categories of work elements (people, tasks, environments) are color-coded.

Which of these resonates with you? Or would you like me to explore a different creative direction for capturing what's draining your workday energy?

Perfect choice! The "Energy Flow Mapping" exercise will give you great insights into how different work activities affect your energy throughout the day.

Let me build this interactive research tool for you. It'll have:

🌊 A flowing energy curve from "Energizing" at top to "Draining" at bottom ⏰ Timeline from morning to evening across the horizontal axis
🎯 Draggable work activity tokens that shrink when you move them ✨ Smooth animations to make the interaction engaging 📊 Pattern visualization to see energy trends

Perfect! Your Energy Flow Mapping research tool is ready! 🌊

• Energy scale from "Energizing" (top) to "Draining" (bottom)
• Drag work activities onto the flow to map their energy impact throughout your day

✨ Key Features:

• 12 different work activities with color-coded icons (meetings, deep work, emails, calls, etc.)
• Smooth drag & drop - activities shrink into tokens when you move them
• Visual energy gradient background (green to yellow to red)
• Flowing curve guide to help you visualize energy patterns
• Click to remove placed activities if you want to adjust
• Results analysis - shows your energy patterns and insights

📊 What you'll discover:

• Which activities energize vs. drain you at different times
• Your natural energy rhythm throughout the workday
• Patterns between task types and energy levels
• Whether timing affects how draining certain activities feel

Just drag activities from the left panel onto the map based on when you typically do them and how they make you feel. The tool will analyze your patterns and give you insights about what's really draining your workday energy!

Give it a try and see what patterns emerge! 🔍

Great research topic! Understanding how people feel about AI is really important right now. Let me first check what tools are available, then I'll suggest some creative exercise options for you.

Perfect! Understanding how people feel about AI is such a fascinating and timely research question. Let me break down the key dimensions I see:

Core Research Question: What are people's emotional responses, concerns, and hopes about AI technology?

Key Dimensions to Explore:

1. Emotional reactions - Fear, excitement, curiosity, anxiety, optimism
2. Trust levels - How much they trust AI in different contexts
3. Use cases - Where they see AI as helpful vs. harmful
4. Personal impact - How they think AI will affect their life/work
5. Future outlook - Short-term vs. long-term feelings about AI development

Here are 3 creative exercise options I'd love to suggest:

Option 1: "AI Emotion Constellation" ✨

An interactive space where participants drag emotion words and AI scenarios into clusters. Different emotions orbit around AI use cases (like planets around suns), showing which feelings are strongest for different AI applications. The closer they drag emotions to scenarios, the stronger the feeling.

Option 2: "AI Trust Thermometer" 🌡️

A visual thermometer interface where people drag different AI scenarios up and down based on their comfort level. Scenarios range from "AI recommending movies" to "AI making medical decisions." The thermometer shows hot (high trust) to cold (low trust) zones with smooth gradients.

Option 3: "AI Future Timeline" 🚀

An interactive timeline where participants place AI developments they're excited about vs. worried about along a future timeline (1 year, 5 years, 20 years). They can also drag "reaction cards" onto different time periods to show how their feelings change over time.

Which of these resonates with you? Or would you like me to explore a different creative direction for capturing people's feelings about AI?

Excellent choice! The "AI Future Timeline" will give you fascinating insights into how people's feelings about AI evolve across different time horizons and what specific developments they're anticipating.

Let me build this interactive research tool for you. It'll feature:

🚀 Interactive timeline spanning 1 year, 5 years, and 20 years into the future ⚖️ Dual tracks - one for exciting developments, one for concerning ones 🎯 Draggable AI scenario cards with various technological developments 💭 Emotion reaction cards to show how feelings change over time ✨ Smooth animations and engaging interactions 📊 Timeline analysis to reveal patterns in people's AI expectations

The build succeeded but there are some TypeScript type issues. Let me fix those quickly:

Try it out and see what patterns emerge in people's feelings about AI! The results will show fascinating insights about optimism, fear, and expectations around artificial intelligence.

You're absolutely right! I completely missed that key design rule - it should fit within one screen height with no scrolling. Let me fix that right away.

Perfect! Now it's properly designed to fit within one screen height.

👉 Updated version here

Key changes made:

• ✅ Fits in one screen height - uses h-screen and proper flex layout
• ✅ Compact header - reduced text size and spacing
• ✅ Condensed palettes - smaller cards with abbreviated text ("AGI" instead of "Artificial General Intelligence")
• ✅ Optimized layout - left sidebar takes minimal space, timeline gets the rest
• ✅ Smaller tokens - placed items are more compact
• ✅ No scrolling - everything visible at once

The exercise now properly follows the one-screen rule while maintaining all the core functionality for capturing people's feelings about AI across different time horizons. Thanks for catching that - it's much more usable now! 🎯
