Interesting graph-based approach to long-context memory
From 3 comments
I am glad to see more stuff with graph based AI here. I have a running bet with a friend about whether future is going to be OBM (One Big Model) or LoLM (Lots of Little Models).…
Mizza on HNThis is a very cool idea. We are doing something similar except we are also predicting the nodes. In the end, the winning combination will likely be doing both. There will be a…
cardine on HNVery interesting! I'm giving it a try now, a few thoughts: 1. The default "Node 1" etc titles on cards is unfortunate. I feel like I want to fix it, but I don't think there's…

Objections
Use case for AI-written novels is questioned
From 2 comments
What exactly is the use case for "longform writing by AI"? Profiting from mass-produced zero-effort novels?
nicolas_17 on HNWhy would we want an AI that writes novels though? Is this a "to see if we can" thing? Let's say this or some future AI system writes better novels than any human author at a…

Summaries lose detail and do not give true long-term memory
From 1 comment
I don't understand exactly how that would work. At some point, the generation would introduce new events and characters, new places or objects, and name them, but then when…

Generated text can be garbled and go off track

This has some potential. However the AI really has a tendancy to want to make a complete story at each step. I was using the default prompt about finding a treasure map and going…

Add examples to show what can be achieved
From 1 comment
I think this would benefit from an example. When I open the page for the first time I'd like to see the option not to just see the instructions on how to achieve something but…

ianbicking on HNI'm excited to give this a try. Long story short, I worked through a series of concepts with a designer friend last year using GPT-3 with a similar target: longform. Our approach…

Looks great, and def something I would try. What's the story on the waitlist, how soon do you anticipate granting accounts? I have two novels I'm working on, both have very…

Questions
How does the memory actually work beyond summaries?
From 2 comments
Congrats on the launch! I'm not your target market but am curious to learn how this gives AI "unlimited" memory. Whenever I try to use GPT-3 API, I'm blocked by the token limit…

Which LLM is used?
From 1 comment
Do you mind sharing which LLM this is using? Is it GPT?

As I said: "that AI will also master therapy, sales, supervising children, customer service etc, as it now has an strong understanding of human behaviour." Novel writing is like…

Outliner tools like MORE

This seems to be an attempt at knowledge engineering by another name. It's unclear to me why this version is better than any other the many other outliner-type writing tools that…
