In this video I show you how I use AI (like ChatGPT) to help me build a real “second brain” workflow inside Obsidian—specifically by generating Dataview queries. If you’ve ever wanted dashboards, dynamic lists, or automatic rollups of your notes but got stuck on Dataview syntax, this is the bridge. I walk through how to describe what you want in plain English, then have AI translate that into working Dataview queries you can paste into Obsidian and iterate on. Then I go a level deeper: I set up an AI assistant inside Obsidian so I can create more complex queries faster, without constantly context-switching. The core idea is simple—give the AI the right “rules,” examples, and constraints (my Dataview prompts/notes), and it becomes a Dataview copilot for your vault. The takeaway is that AI doesn’t replace your system—it accelerates the boring parts so you can spend your energy on focused learning, deep work, and building an intentional digital life.
