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

Nice work. An AI populated mind map. I like it. Just missed a way to go from a node to more textual content if I want to know more than just a bullet list. E.g. an abstract-style paragraph, or even just a web search for the string.

Good idea mate I'll probably include a Amazon "search list" for books, and a video "search list" for Youtube, ect... Might be cool. If I try to provide direct links I get a lot of false results but I didn't think of adding web searches themselves.

(There was a feature to generate dissertations on whatever topic but I had to turn it off because I believe it was abused and that cost a lot of credits. I'll try to add it more securely very soon.)

Yah I want to actually read a blurb about the topic when I click on a node
