## Summary
Andrej Karpathy uses large language models (LLMs) to build personal knowledge bases by compiling data into markdown wikis. The LLM writes, maintains, and answers complex questions from the wiki, which is viewed and managed in Obsidian. This method helps organize research efficiently and suggests new insights without manual editing. *(Summarized by Ghostreader)*
## Significance
Directly relevant to the PSKA knowledge garden approach — a prominent practitioner running essentially the same architecture (LLM + markdown wiki + Obsidian).
