karpathy just casually described the future of ai and most people scrolled right past it:
he's been building what he calls "llm knowledge bases."
here's what that means in plain english:
you take everything you're interested in.
articles, research papers, datasets, images, etc and you dump it all into one folder
then you point your ai at the folder and say "read all of this, organize it, and remember it"
the ai reads through every single source.
writes summaries, groups related ideas together, links concepts across different articles
basically builds a personal library that's fully organized and searchable
and it maintains the whole thing for you.
when you add something new, the ai reads it, figures out how it connects to everything already in the library, and updates automatically.
karpathy said he rarely touches it himself
once the library gets big enough (~100 articles, ~400k words), you can start asking it complex questions and get answers pulled from across your entire collection
> "what are the common themes across these 30 papers"
> "what did i save six months ago that connects to this new idea"
> "summarize everything i have on topic x and tell me what's missing"
and every answer it gives gets filed back into the library. so the system gets smarter every single time you use it.
the memory grows from both sides: what you save AND what you ask
now think about your own life for a second
you probably have
> thousands of twitter bookmarks you'll never reopen.
> hundreds of saved articles from the last year
> podcasts where someone said something brilliant and you can't remember what it was or which episode
all dead knowledge.
you consumed it once and it disappeared
now imagine all of it lives in one system: organized, connected, and queryable.
you could ask "what are the best pricing frameworks i've come across this year" and get an answer that pulls from:
1. a podcast you listened to in january
2. a twitter thread you bookmarked in march
3. and a blog post you forgot you even read
the ai connects dots across formats, across months, across topics.
because it absorbed everything and has photographic memory of all of it
that's the dream. and karpathy built it
the problem: right now this requires obsidian (a note-taking app built around linked notes), command line tools, custom scripts, and browser extensions just to wire it all together.
you need to be quite technical
karpathy even said it himself: "i think there is room here for an incredible new product instead of a hacky collection of scripts"
i think whoever packages this for normal people is sitting on something massive.
one app that syncs with the tools you already use, your bookmarks, your read-later app, your podcast app, your saved threads.
it pulls everything in automatically, the ai organizes and connects it over time, and you can ask questions across your entire personal library whenever you want
you never manually upload anything. it just learns in the background
someone please build this
@AlexHormozi Sorry for your loss, @AlexHormozi. Your mom was wise to trust in Jesus. He is the prince of peace and I pray you have that and find Him in it too.
