    Nice work. Subscribed. I had a very similar idea a while back. I wanted to rank news by "impact" which might be more concrete than "significance." For an LLM prompt, it would be so…

    > 3. Hypothetical answer generation from a query using an LLM, and then using that hypothetical answer to query for embeddings works really well. I've been wondering about that and…

    are there any good online designs that actually look like a print newspaper, with the features you describe? I've wanted to take a stab at it because I think it would be "neat" but…

    Anyone have or know of a list of LLM challenges like this? Targeted use cases with unpublished test data?

    This looks cool. Here's my feature request list (can't tell if these are there yet): - import existing html/css. This would allow me to use it for non-greenfield projects, and allo…

    Agreed. I really like the concept of the now page as a succinct quarterly update. I want it to only change once per quarter. I also really like consolidated news feeds of one perso…

    My broad sweeping generalization was primarily meant as a counterpoint to this from parent comment: "The pandemic showed us exactly what children would prefer to do, when they don'…

    Kids, when given the choice, will choose to play games (of many different kinds) above just about anything else. The future of education is the playful gamification of relevant ski…

    I'd argue that what you're talking about in fiction is coherence (internal consistency) not factual accuracy (consistency with an externally verifiably ground truth). I'd also argu…

    LLMs would be better nomenclature than AI in this context. LLMs are not factual databases. They are not trained to retrieve or produce factual statements. LLMs give you the most li…
