You’re thinking of retrieval augmented generation (RAG) with a vector database. Its something that’s being actively developed. I haven’t had time to dig much into it, especially currently. But the terms themselves should give you a starting point.
Edit: a quick google gives what could be a promising starting point https://huggingface.co/learn/cookbook/rag_llamaindex_librarian
In a similar vein, this is the second time today I had a chance to reference this quote on the nature of language from the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett.
Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder. Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels. Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies. Elves are glamorous. They project glamour. Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment. Elves are terrific. They beget terror. The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning. No one ever said elves are nice. Elves are bad.
Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies (Discworld, #14; Witches, #4)

Probably related to this, very fun column to read.
You can, its an option if you use tailscale. https://tailscale.com/mullvad
Also look into using tailscale lock to secure things more if you do decide to use it
that and never connect the TV to the internet, it’ll nag you occasionally asking if you want to connect but that’s easily cancelled out.
I sort things every once in a while but eventually lose interest or patience. Would be nice to have a way to do it automatically. I suppose llms could help there, but I’m not sure if they’re quite there yet in terms of reliability.
Keeping in touch with people. I have no idea what causes it but people just stop talking to me. I’ve lost touch with so many friends and family members over the years that in a lot of ways its just not worth the effort to make new ones. Which gets pretty lonely but I don’t see an alternative.
I realize that part of it is my fault as I’m not the best at keeping up with people either, but I at least make the effort with the few friends and family I’m trying to keep so I don’t lose absolutely everyone. The only exception is work colleagues and my mother who I have a strained relationship with.
I’m sure the work colleagues will fade if I ever leave the company, as has happened every single time before. I’m sure you can guess why my relationship with my mother isn’t something I necessarily want to improve.
I’ve received multiple reasons that people never message, usually some variant of forgetting to respond due to being too busy. But what’s especially frustrating are the people that say, I think of you often and things of that nature, but that never seems to translate into, “let’s see how they’re doing by reaching out”. Adding to this is how I’ve never had much luck making friends so it’s not like I’ve ever had a large pool to draw from.
I’ve found that in those cases its usually explorer that’s the culprit. Just having the removable drive open in explorer is enough to keep windows from being able to unmount the drive.
And these are the people who demand id to get back into your account if they find activity they deem suspicious.
Try Firefox relay. It can set you up with a randomly generated email address that will forward to your regular email.
Misspelled “lame-o” is my guess. Though my spelling of it is a guess as well.
