    Neat! This reminds me of Posthaven in that they’re designing to be around for 50+ years. Sam Altman’s blog is with Posthaven, where I first heard of it.

    Using localized, private AI models to “chat” with previous thoughts is pretty neat, and a use case for archiving thoughts via notes over time. Linking ideas as well is pretty neat.
