    Wondering▲345

    Hey HN! I’m excited to show you my app that lets you learn any topic in a structured, bite-sized way. Each lesson has an audio version, some visuals, and interactive quizzes. They’re personalized to your background and goals, and you can pick a concept inside a lesson and ask it to go deeper.

    Hi HN! I have built an AI-based content creation tool called Content Explorer. Instead of writing to create the best content, it allows you to iteratively discover it by offering a bunch of operators that modify and enhance your initial input. The node-based interface allows you to easily visualize the result of your operations and compare and contrast different versions. I like the mental model of Large Language Models as word calculators. So I have built this word editor that works like an image editor since we can now process language just like we have been processing images. You can use…
