AI for Thought Hackathon

* Everyone must ship!!* Come build something incredible. Backed by Omniscience [https://omniscience.tech]. What is AI for Thought? Let’s start by understanding Tools for Thought: A range of methods, systems, and tools designed to enhance thinking, learning, and knowledge management. Then we’ll refine those tools with methods from AI, and finally consider newly possible extensions. For example: Bi-directional linking Zettelkasten Spaced Repetition Systems Memex & Memory Systems Personal Wikis Mind & Concept Mapping Interactive Learning Environments So, what falls under AI for Thought? Omni-directional embedding-powered linking Generative model bi-directional linking via LLM generated tags Auto-Zettelkasten Generative Flash Cards for Spaced Repetition ML Search systems over personal data (Local) Approximate & query augmented rip-grep / Tuned embeddings /Hybrid Search Generative personal wiki, based on user behavior + Browser History, Screenshot OCR Embedding based graphs, generative graphs Docs -> Graph, Book -> Graph, Papers -> Graph AI interaction in learning environments How can AI for Thought Extend Tools for Thought? What else is AI for Thought? A few examples: Enhancing Decision Making Neural Memory Through Search Reading Customized for You The Generative Interface Generative Creativity The Generative Web (Web Rewritten for You) Generative Encyclopedia, a Totally Comprehensive Knowledge Store Real Time Proactive Search Generative Quizzes When Reading Books & Papers Interactive Reading Experience Generative Courses / Curriculum Based in an Upload of Books & Papers Immersive Knowledge Consumption & Generation Experiences In 1968 Douglas Engelbart showed the "mother of all computer demos". It was a device that let you use a computer without just typing into a terminal: the mouse. Innovations like the mouse turned computers into what Steve Jobs called "A bicycle for the mind" Now more than 50 years later, computers can think, speak, and listen as well as humans in many scenarios. It is time to again ask ourselves: What does it mean to use a computer as a tool for the mind? It may mean building the next Notion, or Roam research, or Obsidian, ground up using gen AI. It may mean rekindling the aspirations of the Internet-Of-Things movement where any household appliance can be communicated with seamlessly. Or it may mean creating "the next mouse" This hackathon is a playground to think different.
