I never considered that idea of treating the code and company as executable knowledge.
I am trying to figure out how to structure the unstructured human knowledge like the design docs, Confluence pages, process notes into an ontology or graph that an agent or a human can query to understand how and why systems work the way they do.
- lifeisstillgood 1y agoDon’t think of it that way - instead think of software as the new literacy. And therefore wikis and design docs and architecture diagrams (anything that holds knowledge but it non-executable) is just illiterate scrawls. What do you expect of writing made by people who cannot read or write (code). If they could write code they would have written code. Instead they write at best Jira tickets. So ignore it. Maybe walk over it with and LLM but then what - perhaps they are making buggy whips. Is there a difference between a hotel that has you login on a screen and the savoy where a top hatted doorman opens the taxi door and says welcome Mr Brian? Yes there is a difference but 99% of the difference is location and decor quality. Maybe you don’t need the doorman if you are about to 10x the speed?
