Karpathy's knowledge engine workflow: Claude Code turns raw notes into a self-updating wiki
nikola_mr64990 · x · 2026-10-16
A viral thread recycles Andrej Karpathy's idea (reportedly 23M+ views): stop using AI just for coding and build a personal knowledge engine instead. The workflow: create an Obsidian vault, open it with Claude Code, feed in raw materials (articles, transcripts, PDFs), and use a wiki-structure prompt so Claude links topics and maintains a self-updating knowledge base that compounds as you add more. The thread is wrapped in marketing bait ($12k income claims), but the underlying workflow is Karpathy's and easily reproducible.
