Is it able to handle a much larger dataset? Only a tiny fraction of data has been release from what is looks like.
yes! once for files come out, I will add them right away
Show HN: OSS AI agent that indexes and searches the Epstein files

Re: Show HN: OSS AI agent that indexes and searches the Epstein files
#52Feedback: This agent didn't really work well when I tried it with a specific non-famous, but definitely publicly known individual with known connections to Epstein. I'd rather not post a specific name here. I found more documents with keyword searches. I guess it did get me to the conclusion that there wasn't much out there, but it didn't even mention stuff that showed up in name keyword searches. To replicate though…
Thanks for testing this. The Bannon email from June 30, 2019 is in there (HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_029622). Good stress test idea.
Couple things happening:
Semantic search limitation: Less-famous names don't have strong embeddings, so it defaults to general connections rather than specific mentions Keyword search gap: You're right — raw grep can catch exact names I'm missing
Re: Show HN: OSS AI agent that indexes and searches the Epstein files
#53As many others pointed out, the released files are nearly nothing compared to the full dataset. Personally I've been fiddling a lot with OSINT and analytics over the publicly available Reddit data(a considerable amount of my spare time over the last year) and the one thing I can say is that LLMs are under-performing(huge understatement) - they are borderline useless compared to traditional ML techniques. But as far a…
what are the most unhinged and uncensored models out there?
Open source models with minimal safety fine tuning or Grok

Why? They are generated pictures, not real pictures.
A lot of people are now struggling to detect which images are AI generated, and inferring reality from illusions. To an extent, this was already the case with many other things, including stuff that was expressly labelled as fiction, but I recall an old quote, fooling all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, it is now easier to fool more people all the time and to fool all people an…
How about adding a caption saying "the parts of this picture marked with a red outline have been generated by AI"?

#55Not sure if this is possible but it should be known there is a COMPLETE INDEX to the original Epstein Files
(not including the new millions upon millions of documents and photos)

from a 2017 FOIA they had to provide it

Might be possible for machine-learning to determine what is missing?
(which is basically 99% missing as we already know less than 1% released)

I saw a similar problem. Roger Schank had some conversations with Epstein and the emails can be seen in Epsteinvisualizer.com but your site claimed there was no emails or connection. To be fair to Roger, who was an AI legend of his time and someone I knew personally before his untimely death, he really was not a pedo, and most likely never got involved with the girls, I think him and Epstein just talked about AI and education mostly.

#59I keep thinking that the lack of children’s faces in the blacked out rectangles make the files much less shocking. I wonder if AI could put back fake images to make clearer to people how sick all this is.
I believe this would decrease credibility of the evidence, not increase it.

https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2025/12/27/a... . This mentions the Trump angle. It also mentions that the report came out before the 2020 election and could be fake. I'm a little confused because the report itself says nothing about Trump so don't know where the Free press gets that and they don't tell you what the source is or I missed it. Edit: Oh I get it. The woman's statement Donald Trump is nam…
The allegation is quite clearly that Trump participated in [ redacted ] this pregnant 13 year-old.
> [Trump] participated regularly in paying money to force me to [ redacted ] with him
The reason he was allegedly there was probably to [ redacted ] a 13 year old... That's what convicted rapists with deep connections to child sex traffickers do...?
