Kitab An-Nur – Preserving human experiences before AI content takes over

2•Khaledonian•3h ago
I'm building something that might sound backward in 2025 – a deliberately text-only website that archives real human experiences. The problem: We're about to hit an inflection point where most online content will be AI-generated. There's a narrow window to preserve authentic human wisdom before it's buried under synthetic content forever.

The approach:

For starters : AI pipeline extracts actual wisdom from the internet, for example a Youtube video (25 min → 7 min of actionable content) Pure text interface, zero visual distractions or engagement manipulation Multilingual archive across languages Non-profit model focused on preservation, not monetization

Technical challenge: How do you separate signal from noise at scale? Current approach uses LLMs to identify and extract experiential knowledge while filtering out promotional content, speculation, and fluff. Examples of what gets preserved:

How someone in Mumbai saved their marriage (specific steps, not theory) How a farmer in Canada survived drought (actual techniques used) How someone in Saudi Arabia fixed their car and saved $4000 (exact process)

Link to mockups: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/10OLzJzQ76hy5f9Xj964mgrGBtCGc20-X?usp=sharing

The interface looks almost archaic by today's standards – that's intentional. Think Internet Archive meets Wikipedia, but for lived experiences instead of facts.

Curious what HN thinks about the premise. Are we actually facing content authenticity extinction, or am I overthinking this?
