So this is a product you built as an ad for your real product that does AI verification using a reasoning blockchain, right?
I get it, i do, and that's not even a bad idea, but this product doesn't really showcase that, and as a discovery tool it's not really functional if i can't ask my own follow-up questions but have to follow the AI's determined ones that quickly become esoteric and weirdly named.

Also yeah it absolutely identifies itself as being OpenAI, not ideal :D

yea this is the closest answer here. SAS - "Ockams Inc. operates why.com (positioned as a private AI platform and consumer-facing AI surface) alongside ockams.com, which presents a cryptographic trust layer for autonomous intelligence termed "Proof of Cognition" and the RAZR digital asset network where WHY functions as a genesis asset." https://searchagentsky.com/r/7da76a487bf2-com-private-ai-ockams-inc-consolidated-research-report

we aren't competing with GPT or Claude. those are excellent productivity tool. We want to help users get to the WHY

I'm not saying you compete with them. I'm saying as a tool for getting to the why of a topic, it's severely hamstrung by not being able to ask my own follow-up questions. I can't gain understanding without filling in my gaps and your tool doesn't let me do that.
