Recently, I paid for OpenAI for Deep Research. I asked it about a topic I'm actively working on and researching: reactivity and effect systems. Deep Research ended up using my blog as a part of its research.
At first, I wasn't sure what to make of it. But reading the source, my blog post reminded me of some ideas I had consciously forgotten. The Deep Research report gathered some of those idea and repurposed it in an interesting way. So writing a blog is now a way to resurface ideas you might have forgotten yourself back to you, a kind of "memories" or "timehop" feature.
This is very interesting. I worry about having AI on my machine, but also love the idea of having something that can scour the different files and ideas on my computer to make connections and maybe even remind me of ideas I'd forgotten.
