I’m thinking about creating a plugin that adds the similar-note-finding, semantic-search, and intelligent-tagging that Mem X is developing to Obsidian and I’d like to get an idea of how much interest there would be. It looks like there were two posts on the topic last year: AI Powered Obsidian and AI-assisted google-like search.
I love Obsidian. I’m a machine-learning engineer with NLP experience and lately I’ve been learning about semantic search. It would be exciting to use it on a real project.
Do people think there would be broad interest in such a plugin?
I would definitely be interested in this, and I think many others also would be interested even if they don’t know it yet
Not many people dream of their applications being able to understand their thoughts in natural language, but when it’s done well, it feels wrong to not have it anymore.
Hey @DallanQ did you get enough interest in this to start working? Now that i’ve started playing with ChatGPT I can’t stop thinking of the potential of having something even half as powerful if it could link with my Obsidian Vault.
The demo looks great. Really good idea! On about a monthly basis I type out an idea only to stop halfway through to search whether I’m just rehashing an old note. So, definitely need this! Both then, and all the other times I’m missing helpful context relying on Dumb Connections
I see you updated the plugin recently - could that be why it doesn’t appear in Community Plugins right now on MacOS?
I recently released Khoj for Obsidian. It enables semantic-search and find-similar-notes for Obsidian. Your notes stay private as all search and indexing is done locally on your machine. And the search is incremental, so you get a search as you type experience.
Hopefully that provides some of the Mem X type functionality folks were interested in using from within Obsidian?
