So recently Google has posted a research tool called NotebookLM, and to put it simply it's a custom AI bot (similar to Chat GPT) that only looks up and answers questions found in data one provides. Unlike traditional AI bots, it doesn't hallucinate information if it doesn't know it and unlike other bots can answer you 'I don't know' which can be very useful.
People started to use it to make custom AI bots that are very niche and topic-specific which basically act as a big manual for your chosen thing, except that it has AI that's quite efficient at this. So my thought was - would it be possible to download certain threads of this forum, put it into a PDF and use it as a source? There's a lot of valuable information here (and a lot of not so valuable, opinions, out-dated information etc. but still) and it can get troublesome when sometimes you need to find a specific topic or question.
I tried making a quick python script that fetches information from threads but it's not as easy as I thought and perhaps there's an easier solution that I don't know. I'm also curious if anyone else is using the tool or finds this idea interesting and perhaps relevant for them.
