This is an AI-generated systemic view of the song "Time" by Pink Floyd.
ChatGPT was used to generate the variables corresponding to the main ideas contained in the song's lyrics, and to connect them (pairwise) with the verses, which are listed below.
Click here to watch a video where you can see the song being played while the CLD (Causal Loop Diagram) is shown step by step.
V01

V07
And you are young and life is long
Perception of Time -> Time Wastage
Meaning: The belief that time is abundant legitimizes postponement and inefficient use of time.
---
V08
And there is time to kill today
Perception of Time -> Time Wastage
Meaning: Viewing time as something expendable encourages deliberate wasting of it.

V10
Ten years have got behind you
Time Wastage -> Awareness of Finitude
Meaning: Retrospective awareness of lost years intensifies the perception of finitude.

V14
But it's sinking
Rushing -> Frustration
Meaning: Despite increased effort, progress feels unattainable, producing frustration.
---
V15
Racing around to come up behind you again
Rushing -> Frustration
Meaning: Continuous acceleration without real gain reinforces frustration and futility.
---
V16
The Sun is the same, in a relative way
Perception of Time -> Existential Pressure
Meaning: The contrast between personal aging and cosmic constancy heightens existential unease.
---
V17
But you're older
Rushing -> Perceived Physical Limitation
Meaning: Sustained acceleration leads to recognition of aging and bodily limits.
---
V18
Shorter of breath
Rushing -> Perceived Physical Limitation
Meaning: Physical exhaustion becomes a tangible signal of biological limits.
---
V19
And one day closer to death
Perceived Physical Limitation -> Awareness of Finitude
Meaning: Bodily decline reinforces cognitive awareness of mortality.
---
V20
Every year is getting shorter
Awareness of Finitude -> Perception of Time
Meaning: Awareness of mortality compresses subjective experience of time.
---
V21
Never seem to find the time
Perception of Time -> Existential Pressure
Meaning: Feeling that time is scarce intensifies existential stress.
---
V22
Plans that either come to naught
Frustration -> Superficial Planning
Meaning: Frustration degrades planning quality, leading to shallow or ineffective plans.
---
V23
Or half a page of scribbled lines
Superficial Planning -> Time Wastage
Meaning: Poorly formed plans fail to guide action, increasing wasted time.
---
V24
Hanging on in quiet desperation
Frustration -> Superficial Planning
Meaning: Emotional resignation undermines thoughtful planning.
---
V25
Is the English way
Superficial Planning -> Time Wastage
Meaning: Cultural normalization of resignation perpetuates inefficient use of time.
---
V26
The time is gone, the song is over
Existential Pressure -> Search for Meaning
Meaning: Existential closure prompts reflection and a search for meaning.
---
V27
Thought I'd something more to say
Search for Meaning -> Intentional Use of Time
Meaning: The desire to express meaning motivates more deliberate use of time.
---
V28
Home, home again
Existential Pressure -> Home as Refuge
Meaning: Existential stress triggers withdrawal toward safety and familiarity.
---
V29
I like to be here when I can
Life Satisfaction -> Existential Pressure
Meaning: Satisfaction with life reduces existential tension.
---
V30
And when I come home, cold and tired
Home as Refuge -> Emotional Recovery
Meaning: Returning home enables emotional restoration after exhaustion.
---
V31
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Emotional Recovery -> Life Satisfaction
Meaning: Emotional and physical comfort enhance overall life satisfaction.
---
V32
Far away, across the field
Awareness of Finitude -> Search for Meaning
Meaning: Distance and contemplation evoke reflection on life’s meaning.
---
V33
The tolling of the iron bell
Awareness of Finitude -> Search for Meaning
Meaning: Symbolic reminders of mortality trigger existential reflection.

𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿: 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗗𝘆𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗜
Spreadsheets revolutionized how we work with data - they made computation accessible and practical for everyone. But tables full of numbers often hide the bigger picture: the systemic relationships between variables.
What if you could see your spreadsheet not just as numbers, but as an interactive diagram that reveals 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀?
That’s exactly what this project demonstrates. Using 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗚𝗣𝗧 𝟱.𝟮, I transformed a traditional Excel model into a 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 ready for simulation in 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿.
Here’s how it worked. I prompted ChatGPT to:
• 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘑𝘚𝘖𝘕 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘔𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘳. 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 (𝘔11, 𝘔12, 𝘦𝘵𝘤.) 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘢𝘥𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘢 𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘔𝘖𝘕𝘛𝘏𝘚, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘌𝘶𝘭𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.
After a few refinements in the chat, I imported the generated JSON directly - 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀. The resulting diagram is shown here exactly as created by AI. It’s admittedly a bit rough, but intentionally so: it shows the raw potential of AI-assisted modeling.
The best part? The simulation output matched the original spreadsheet values exactly - validated in the "𝘛𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘔𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘳" and "𝘝𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯" tabs.
This isn’t just a technical experiment. It’s a step toward making 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗗𝘆𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 and 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹. By visualizing data flows and feedback loops, we can communicate complex models more clearly and make better decisions.
I hope this inspires you to explore similar integrations between spreadsheets, AI, and simulation tools. Have you tried something like this? I’d love to hear about your experiments!
Let’s push how we model, visualize, and communicate systems. If you find this useful, feel free to share and connect.

From Excel to Insight Maker: Visualizing System Dynamics with AI
Spreadsheets revolutionized how we work with data - they made computation accessible and practical for everyone. But tables full of numbers often hide the bigger picture: the systemic relationships between variables.
What if you could see your spreadsheet not just as numbers, but as an interactive diagram that reveals how everything connects?
That’s exactly what this project demonstrates. Using ChatGPT 5.2, I transformed a traditional Excel model into a stock and flow diagram ready for simulation in Insight Maker.
Here’s how it worked. I prompted ChatGPT to:
"Convert the attached spreadsheet into a stock and flow diagram to be imported as a JSON file into Insight Maker. Parameters (M11, M12, etc.) should be adjustable via sliders, time unit is MONTHS, and use Euler integration."
After a few refinements in the chat, I imported the generated JSON directly - no manual tweaks. The resulting diagram is shown here exactly as created by AI. It’s admittedly a bit rough, but intentionally so: it shows the raw potential of AI-assisted modeling.
The best part? The simulation output matched the original spreadsheet values exactly - validated in the "Table from Insight Maker" and "Validation" tabs.
This isn’t just a technical experiment. It’s a step toward making System Dynamics more intuitive and spreadsheets more insightful. By visualizing data flows and feedback loops, we can communicate complex models more clearly and make better decisions.
I hope this inspires you to explore similar integrations between spreadsheets, AI, and simulation tools. Have you tried something like this? I’d love to hear about your experiments!
Let’s push how we model, visualize, and communicate systems. If you find this useful, feel free to share and connect in LinkedIn.
