A website for open-ended learning with LLMs. Something like a personalized, generative Wikipedia. Has generated courses, documents, quizzes and flashcards.

Each document links to more documents, which are all stored in a graph you grow over time. Currently using the graph for topic suggestions, though I've also been playing around with steering document generation with it as well.



This is amazing. I tried to build something like this about a year ago and didn't get very far. How much time did this take and how big are your AI bills?

Feature suggestion: fact checking the contents of a flash card with perplexity


The first prototype was done in a weekend for an Anthropic contest a while ago, but by now I've been working on it on & off for the better part of a year!

API costs are roughly == subscription costs for power users (slightly more) since it uses Sonnet in most places, but I have credits to burn right now :)

Will see what I can do! Main issue is that search grounding can be a bit expensive...


I’m intrigued and made a note to check this out, but I just wanted to say that I love this design! It’s gorgeous. Is this a template or did you hire a designer or design it yourself?


Thanks! It's done by me (and Claude). I've never done any design in the past so I'm glad you like it!


This is an amazing project. I like it.
