Recently I've been thinking about context-augmented LLM tools such as NotebookLM, where you can upload a number of sources to essentially create a "working memory". I feel this, combined with some clever system prompting, could make the basis for many great tools that are tailored to the user - a way to poke into our own brain and knowledge. As an ADHD individual I constantly feel that I have "millions" of thoughts all at once, creating a lot of noise. I would like an assistant to parse my own brain.
On some easier, more mundane applications for this, I feel this technology would be particularly well suited to language learning, through spaced repetition techniques or similar methods. I might give this a try with Perplexity.
