This is fantastic, like an encyclopedia that knows what context you are learning about as you skip pages. Nice work!

My minor recommendation is to highlight somehow that the input fields accepts any topic and the suggestions are just random try-it-out topics, it's wasn't immediately clear. Instead of 'write a message' it could say maybe, 'enter a topic to learn about'.

oh -- it wasn't really obvious they were links. i think i assumed that because i'm used to the chatGPT ui.

They have the underline usually associated with hotlinks

It's a light grey dotted line under a black bold text, it's not impossible to miss.

I dig this. Reminds me of column mode in MacOS's finder, which is similarly helpful in "rewinding" an exploration of a file system.

Would be interesting to rabbit other rabbit hole resources like Wikipedia or IMDB in this way too.

Perhaps have it not scroll down as it generates the text? Invariably I have to scroll back to the top to start reading. You could have a mini-hud (growing line, with a small rectangle at the top showing the first page of text) which would let you see at a glance how much text is being generated, without interrupting reading. Or not; ChatGPT just keeps on vibrating the phone (iOS app) during text gen, with hovering ar…

You can turn the haptic feedback off in the app, which is what I did. It doesn’t convey useful feedback, just lain annoying.

It seems like they're caching information/replies on key words which is a good optimization.

I assumed it was coming straight from the API because of the token-by-token generation effect but maybe you're right.

The token-by-token responses are probably API, while the "instant" loads seem to be cached.

Probably using groq based on speed of response

If "delve" was meant to be an in-joke, I just wanted you to know: I got it. I also have a Custom GPT "AutoExpert (Chat)" [0] that several reviewers have called "the perfect Rabbit Hole GPT" due to the way it leads users through learning a topic. You might dig it, especially since free tier users have access to these now. [0]: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-LQHhJCXhW-autoexpert-chat

what's the joke?
