I’ve been fantasizing about the perfect personal website for a long time, and this one is the nth iteration of it. The site itself is almost unchanged — what has changed is how I use it.
The problem was never technical. I knew how to build websites. What I never knew how to do was feed them. My site remained just a shell.
This time, there’s something different behind it: a personal research system I call Akita. It connects what I read, what I highlight, what I note — and what I publish here. The idea is simple: continuity between private reflection and public sharing. One nourishes the other.
My site, today:
- has been entirely remade by AI
- integrates a notion of history: the evolution of the site, both in content and structure, will be traceable over time. A site that remembers itself.
- is an automated extension of my intimate reflections
In the age of AI, it’s high time I showed that I have a life too.
