Ideas

Some ideas I find interesting but don’t have enough time to make a reality.

  • A “See all context” button. This is especially useful for reasoning models since I want to know which parts of the reasoning were dropped so I know how much context to provide. You would have to drop sensitive information like like system prompts.
  • JARVIS. Models are capable enough already! We just need some better scaffolding like Cursor and some way to fit in a lot of context. I really liked GPT with scheduled tasks. If you patch 20 of these together, you get a really good assistant. One that would be proactive. I don’t want to ever miss a call again.
  • Surfing footage drone. Before surfing, I set off a drone which follows me and records cool footage of me catching waves.
  • Implement needle in a haystack. I swear my experience with using models don’t correspond with the needle in a haystack results they put out. The current “insert random sentence” method doesn’t seem great either. Combining facts from the beginning and the end, simple reasoning steps, and
  • Machine translation through steering vectors?
  • Give Claude/GPT/… a decent prompt and scaffolding and let it loose on X.
  • Taiwanese news is 50% TSMC and gets updates instantly. But it takes a while for this to get to US news outlets. Make a scraper of big Taiwanese outlets and when it’s an article about TSMC, automatically translate it to English and post it somewhere.

  • How did my water get here? Enter in a location/building and see where your water source is from. What pipes did your water go through? What water plant is it from? What’s the water source?
  • A script that someone goes through a bunch of websites and stores 404s or unavailables and emails people that some site is down.
