Eugene Yan builds Obsidian-Copilot to assist writing and reflection

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Eugene Yan has developed a prototype tool called Obsidian-Copilot, designed to assist with writing and personal reflection. The tool functions by first chunking documents, prioritizing top-level bullets for notes, and then indexing these chunks using both a traditional search engine like OpenSearch and a semantic search powered by the e5-small-v2 embedding model. This dual approach aims to improve retrieval accuracy for generating content and aiding in weekly planning based on journal entries. AI
