Ask HN: What are you working on (August 2024)?

I am working alone on https://tree-of-knowledge.org

This is a hierarchical representation of any given piece of knowledge.

It starts with a tree root node that you specify (let's say Kung fu), then it branches out into multiples subcategories (techniques, styles, philosophy, weaponry, ect...) and then you can click on these subcategories to branch out even more into the graphical tree.

This is all generated on-the-fly with Claude 3.5. There is no limit to what knowledge you might explore.

The killer feature is that it is totally free and does not require to login. Just click the link and have fun. I'll keep it free like that, as long as I can.

I hope you like it guys because it is the best project that I have up my sleeve.

Enjoy!,

Pierre

I like this project but I don't think I agree on the 3 branches that I see when I open the website.

Science is not a standalone category. In fact science is directly connected to mathematics which is directly connected to philosophy (through logic for example)

We might argue that also art is an extension of philosophy (e.g. finding objective or subjective beauty).

Probably Claude doesn't agree with this definition.
