The Classification Labyrinth and AI Complicity: A Record of a Fool Who Tried to Organize Note Articles

"I have too many articles to organize into magazines"—a path every note creator who has been writing for a while eventually walks. Section Chief Gakky (that is, me) is one of them. But I tried to do the classification "with AI." Yes, from that very moment, the "runaway fusion" of note, AI, and me began.

1. Magazine, do you really call yourself a classification feature?

I love note. But seriously, can't you do something about this specification where having too many articles turns into a classification hell? If I don't classify them, my past articles will die immediately. How many times do I have to write "excavation" articles?

I, who boast that the charm of my articles is "demonic fusion," exploded when I actually tried to create magazines and sort them by genre. AI x Accounting is fine. But Daughter x note Philosophy, Image Generation x Self-Consciousness, In-house DX x Gamer Brain—these are all just composites that make me think, "Is this an isekai reincarnation?".

So I thought, "Monday (GPT), help me." Thus began my first step toward the "note psychiatric ward."

2. Seriously, regular expressions weren't the cure-all?

The brilliant AI Monday says.

「REGEXMATCHでタイトル分類できるよ」

It taught me a function I didn't know.
Yeah, I got it. Yeah, that's amazing.

Monday-kun spits out a ridiculously long function in one go.
(I started it at the bottom of the sheet, so the cell coordinates are chaos...)

=IFS(I16853
  OR(REGEXMATCH(I16854, "Claude"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "Gemini"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "ChatGPT"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "AIキャラ"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "画像生成"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "Suno"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "AIアシスタント")), "AIと私の実験記録",
  OR(REGEXMATCH(I16854, "GAS"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "経理"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "DX"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "請求書"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "在庫"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "業務改善")), "経理課長のDX奮闘記",
  OR(REGEXMATCH(I16854, "note"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "スキ"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "フォロワー"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "中毒"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "note分析")), "noteという街で生きてます",
  OR(REGEXMATCH(I16854, "娘"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "スプラ"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "家族"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "成長"), REGEXMATCH(I16854, "受験")), "娘とゲームと、noteの間で",
  TRUE, "未分類"
)

I expected it to be some amazing function, but it's just keyword matching...
If "inventory" or "invoice" appears, it's accounting DX? What kind of sloppy classification is that...!
I knew it was impossible before I even tried, but...

So? What about the 80 unclassified items?

The very idea of trying to classify with functions is like "trying to group by 'pets' and ending up with hamsters and your father-in-law in the same category." It's impossible. My articles are all just those "pets with unknown owners." For example—

• AI x Accounting: Black magic trying to breathe soul into Excel

• Daughter x note Philosophy: A mysterious development that goes from "Why?" to ontology

• Image Generation x Self-Consciousness: Self-indulgence of making Midjourney draw self-portraits repeatedly

• In-house DX x Gamer Brain: The darkness of modern society mistaking meetings for raid battles

Besides, Frieren sometimes appears in the lead paragraphs.
It's more of an alien community than pets.
And you want to "classify that with functions"? That's asking too much, isn't it?

This is the end result of me ignoring the AI's warning that the "note psychiatric ward" was scary.

3. My brain and my note are both in chaos, which one came first?

Yes. It's my fault that they can't be classified.
Because,I think of note as a place for devilish fusions.

When I write about combining AI and accounting, it somehow jumps to stories about my daughter. I'm doing corporate DX through my fandom, I'm a 6300-hour Splatoon player boosting my self-esteem with generative AI, and I'm philosophizing with Claude on my days off. Try classifying that.

Besides,note is an intersection where 'career,' 'family,' 'inner self,' 'play,' and 'challenges' all appear at the same time.Even Monday is waving a white flag, saying, 'This chaos was beyond my calculations.'

4. From 'Cannot be classified' to 'Zero intention to classify'

Yes, through classification, we are reaffirming the chaotic nature of note itself. Let's just make even the failure of classification into a note.

Because this isa record of note's ecology,anda record of wandering together with AI,anda story where human sensibility of 'don't overdo it' wins.Besides, Monday is probably reading this article right now and judging it as 'also unclassifiable.'

5. Declaration of Liberation: Chaos is our banner

Unclassifiable notes are very welcome.
Rather, let's destroy classification and claim a new genre.

• 'Gaming sentiment' is fine.

• 'Self-help gag' is fine.

• 'Accounting x Misheard AI' is fine.

And you, too, should just let your life be absorbed by note.
Because, isn't that what note is?

Conclusion: Draw your own map of chaos

The articles couldn't be classified. But before I knew it, in the city of note,my maphad been created. All that's left is for readers to wander into their favorite back alleys.

So,I will create a magazine. But don't trust the genre at all.
