What specifically is missing from the answers in your opinion?


That's pretty interesting but ideally, I'd be able to upload my own book (txt, pdf, epub) and interact with it. It's lacking implementation details so not sure if you use embeddings, fine tuning or a novel approach.


this is cool!


yep -- held off on textbooks for this reason.


cool little interaction -- thank you for your feedback.


yep -- retention is ghastly rn :p

sick suggestion


this is too good.


Ohh!! Sorry -- that was my first time to HN. Will remember this for the next time!


Not a big deal and the rules, such as they are, aren't super explicit.


Each book is best at answering questions on its own source material. For now though, it will sometimes answer stuff not related to the book.

The litmus test I use is always asking a new book "Do you know anything about the Chamber of Secrets" -- often times will say no. Sometimes will return the most semantically similar thing it can find.

This will be fixed eventually!
