Some sort of memories-style file for topics so it can generate even more cross-references and a sort of shared world. Not for total coherence; the natural contradictions the LLM is going to generate anyhow is just part of the charm. But still sliding the scale a bit more in the direction of coherence that the "use this page's context when generating the clicked link" already leans would add some more appeal, I think.
For instance, you can build memories around times, topics, and people, so maybe specific individuals will be quoted multiple times over the course of the wiki and could build up a specific identity within the shared world.
Also... I don't know how you are thinking of this internally, but other than the issues of token spend and the $$$ involved, I would say, don't even blink at simply nuking the site at some point and starting over once you have some moderation stuff in place and other limits. Don't put it on yourself to filter out what garbage has already been generated. It's all transient content. It lazily regenerates itself anyhow. It's not precious, except for, like I said, the aforementioned token costs, which I don't deny. You can probably put some other tweaks in to the prompt to your liking at that point too.
Could be interesting direction to discover. The only problem with such implementation is it could take some work to make it cheap and actually well working. And I'm just thinking about the near future of this project.
I really like it, but without organic traffic, at the position we're right now, the moment HN stops showing us at the top, we will loose all the visitor.
And it's not like I'm trying to do a startup out of it. I just very enjoy making something people love! It's first time in my life and it's amazing.
If you have any interesting thought, please leave them here - I'll definitely read it, or visit our discord [link on halupedia ;) ].
Many LLMs are surprisingly good at using specific named authors (rather than just example texts) to evoke a style, so you could try "in the style of Jorge Luis Borges" or "…Douglas Adams" or "…Robert Anton Wilson" – whose surreal/absurd/fantastic styles could be fertile seeds.
(If not already familiar with Borges, definitely check out his 'Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius' and 'Library of Babel' as inspiration.)
While "each article written once" an interesting & useful constraint, a Hallucipedia that evolves like Wikipedia, with revisions "towards" some level of inter-article agreement, or even shows scars from edit wars between competing schools of thought, might also be fun.
* readers can request reviews from certain perspectives: "new discovery", "historic reinterpretation", etc. The reviews specifically search for related sibling articles, and seek to create ever-larger areas of consistency. (The same prompt admonition against "nothing actually true" could be paired with "but other Halupedia articles are diegetically true"
* a background process clusters articles, and picks pairs within some neighborhood for dual-harmonization - where they avoid contradictions & adopt meaningful (& deep-anchor) cross-links to each others' sections. Repeated, or to the extent contexts allow expansion of synchronized revision to N-tuples of articles, this creates a tropism towards a shared (un)reality.
