The article is not on training LLMs. it is about using LLMs to write a wiki for personal use. The article assumes a fully trained LLM such as ChatGPT or Claude already exists to be used.

Don't even try, after vibe coding, people seem to be adopting vibe thinking. "Model Collapse sounds cool, I'm gonna use it without looking up"

Vibe thinking... that's an interesting premise. I'll have to build up my new llm-wiki before I'll know what to think about "vibe thinking."

I was joking but also not joking, this llm-wiki idea is fun. I fed into it it's own llm-wiki.md, Foucault's Pendulum, randomly collected published papers about the philosophy of GiTS, several CCRU essays, and Manufacturing Consent. It drew fun red yarn between all of them, about the topic of red yarn (e.g. schizos drawing connections out of nothing, particularly through the use of computers, and how this relates to itself doing literally this as it does it.)

I'll spare you most of the slop but.. "The Case That I Am Abulafia: The parallel is uncomfortable and precise. [...]"

Yeah... It's fun though.

Also, TFA prescribes putting ground truth source files into a /raw directory.

Everything is derived from them and backlinks into them. Which is necessary to be vigilant about staleness, correctness, drift, and more. Just like in a human-built knowledge base.
