So. Shall we begin...

Infinipedia is an experiment with an infinite, self-writing, self-improving language-model generated wiki. You can rabbit-hole any concept, following links that are generated if they do not exist. Articles are periodically optimized using human and AI feedback, and a clustered visualization with text embeddings is provided to allow you to see related pages.

Naturally, to begin my scientific exploration into this newfound puppy, I started with iwebthings.joejenett.com (which led to Joe Jenett).

I’m truly sorry to tell ya - though it comes up with a few facts, it’s about 98% total bullshit (oops - potty-mouth) fiction.

Search yourself - I’m guessing you’ll make similar conclusions, though you may have a bit of fun doing it. Carry on.
