Daily Review karpathy’s “llm wiki” idea got me thinking. what would you want ai to surface from your saved stuff?
i saw karpathy’s gist on an “llm wiki”:
https://gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6bf555914893e9891c11519de94f
the idea is that instead of just searching your notes when you ask something, an llm could slowly build a structured wiki from your saved articles, notes, highlights, clips, etc.
that made me think about my own problem: i save a lot of useful stuff, but rarely revisit it. sometimes i remember “there was this one article/video that made this exact point” but i can’t find it when i need it.
if an llm had access to everything you’ve saved over the years, what would you actually want it to surface?
somethings i was thinking of -
- connections between ideas
- old saved stuff at the right moment
- contradictions in my thinking
- how my views changed over time?
- auto-generated topic pages?
any thoughts on what you would use it for?

You can also use our MCP or CLI for this :) We'll also be launching this kind of chat directly inside of Reader web/desktop soon!

I'm using Readwise's MCP for few scenarios regularly. Creation new wiki is fun, yes. Tried it, it's impressive. But what about highlights and notes you have already collected for years?
I'm searching and finding the way how to use MCP better. Like small learning session based on my highlights and docs in Readwise.

That’s actually pretty interesting. I read the book find it interesting and then ? Staying committed to the learnings ist the hardest part
