Start from intertemporal model

Simulation if cannot find data, keep theoretical.


Economics paper
Intertemporal choice,
Behavioral economics: measure utility

1. Read lit
2. Narrow down research idea
3. Establish theory and parameter: through proof, write down a problem, utility function
subject to BC. Solve the question. Explain the result.
4. Simulation
5. Draft paper

When you write the paper, start from method and result part, then lit review.
Use a game theory: change utility model. Not just one person. Cannot assume all people are
altruistic.

First step model, what to include in the utility function, what factor, research question, I have
read some lit inside this area. Summarise one or two of it. Have some uncertain points. Can I
meet you at your office to discuss this research?
lit already read.
Early in weekdays. 9am

Cannot use model from GPT. Naïve model and ask GPT for advice.

AI combines models with no sense. They use big data. Summarise lit is good, have a rough
direction
