         | You and I are going to end up competing because im evovling my

         | https://github.com/backnotprop/prompt-tower ... best of luck,
         | great execution thus far.

       | 
       | I must have taken a turn to the wrong timeline.

       | I thought about building something along these lines (not the
       | same but vaguely similar).
       | 
       | Then Gemini AI Studio came along with a 1 million token window
       | and allowed me to upload zip files of my entire code base and I
       | lost interest in my own thing.

         | 
         | Just upload a novel and ask it questions, you'll see how it
         | botches simple stuff

           | Easiest way to prove it can't handle the full context in
           | reality is to upload a one hour documentary movie with audio
           | and ask it to write timestamps of chapters/critical moments.
           | It can't handle this beyond 10 minutes even remotely
           | reliably.

         | Yes the long context it's complementary, in other chat services
         | like Gemini you have to rewrite that base context everytime for
         | each new fresh chat, plus they lack of specific data import
         | tools and projects management

       | Nice idea!
       | 
       | I think it would be better if it was just context and not
       | connected to any model. Think of one place where you can hook in
       | your drive folder, GitHub, etc. and have it produce the best
       | context for the task you want to achieve. Then users can copy
       | that to their model or workflow of choice

         | Thank you, this could be a cool feature too add! For example
         | the ability to click a link that redirects to other chat
         | services with your project base context you built and
         | optionally all the messages sent until there

       | Isn't NotebookLM already exactly web and file context (a
       | "ContextChat")?
       | 
       | Edit: I assume it is basically a similar product, but your
       | differentiators are mainly the customer getting to choose their
       | model, and you getting to write your own context adding
       | ergonomics (like adding links from a Sitemap)?
        
         | tapeo wrote:
         | Exactly, similar plus tools to import and manage projects
         | context fast (like GitHub private repos and sitemaps url),
         | multiple ai model and pay per use like using APIs

       | One key thing I was hoping for was a consistent resync with
       | source material particularly google docs. Looks like I'll have to
       | download then upload to your app whenever they change.
       | 
       | Is that right? Auto syncing in the plan?
