But file explorer does not read the actual files and build context. Even for pure text files that sometimes search functions can also access, I need to remember exactly the string of characters I am looking for.

I was hoping an LLM would have a context of all of my content (text and visual) and for the first time use my computers data as a knowledge base.

Queries like “what was my design file for that x service” ? Today it’s impossible to answer unless you have organized your data your self.

Why do we still have to organize our data manually?



The photos apps do this well now. Can search Apple/Google photos with questions about the content of images and videos and get useful results.
