🚨 China just built Wikipedia's replacement and it exposes the fatal flaw in how we store ALL human knowledge.
Most scientific knowledge compresses reasoning into conclusions. You get the "what" but not the "why." This radical compression creates what researchers call the "dark matter" of knowledge the invisible derivational chains connecting every scientific concept.
Their solution is insane: a Socrates AI agent that generates 3 million first-principles questions across 200 courses. Each question gets solved by MULTIPLE independent LLMs, then cross-validated for correctness.
The result? A verified Long Chain-of-Thought knowledge base where every concept traces back to fundamental principles.
But here's where it gets wild... they built the Brainstorm Search Engine that does "inverse knowledge search." Instead of asking "what is an Instanton," you retrieve ALL the reasoning chains that derive it: from quantum tunneling in double-well potentials to QCD vacuum structure to gravitational Hawking radiation to breakthroughs in 4D manifolds.
They call this the "dark matter" of knowledge finally made visible.
SciencePedia now contains 200,000 entries spanning math, physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. Articles synthesized from these LCoT chains have 50% FEWER hallucinations and significantly higher knowledge density than GPT-4 baseline.
The kicker? Every connection is verifiable. Every reasoning chain is checked. No more trusting Wikipedia's citations you see the actual derivation from first principles.
This isn't just better search. It's externalizing the invisible network of reasoning that underpins all science.
The "dark matter" of human knowledge just became visible.
