I'm making https://pond.li to try and make our personal archives of text and other media we engage with more available to the present. It's an interesting design space at least, partly because it requires taking a stance on what meaningful/cognitive agency preserving human-LLM interaction looks like

LLM/procedurally-generated fictional wikis with worldbuilding history/context so the wiki stays coherent. Fun project to make the most of LLM hallucinations

Sorry I botched that. Fixing now and will post again, thank you for bringing it to my attention!

Hey, HN, this was inspired by Borges’ fictional encyclopaedias and the idea (Brian Eno’s I think) that the flaws of a system/tool (hallucinations and LLMs here) are what we come to value over time. Hope you find it somewhat interesting/fun!

This stands in pretty stark contrast to a recent popular post on here about how important memorising things is to developing knowledge

How did the Netherlands go from 0.9 in 2019 to 0.75 in 2021!? You'd need nothing short of a mini-revolution to do that in those timescales

I have a philosophy degree, have worked in product teams, and have had very similar observations. I could've written this comment!

Not sure if you actually read the article but infrastructural impact is clearly discussed.

You sent over two links about the environmental impact of data centres. There is no denial that these are burdensome on the environment; the question is to what degree AI and its applications contribute to that effect. If you wanted to argue in good faith you'd be advocating for everyone to stop watching Netflix, because video streaming generates a far greater demand than AI currently does, but I don't see you doing this.

I had this for about a year, and it really only went away when I quit my job. It wasn't even a particularly demanding job, but I guess the lifestyle + the fact that I felt I was wasting my life away might have played a role. Nothing else is really different.
