Purpose

Labrynth is a hands-on project that I've been developing at Bay Area hackathons and in my free time. It serves both as a platform for sharpening my technical skills and as a testbed for experimenting with emerging AI engineering technologies.

Empowering Your Knowledge and Skill Acquisition Journey

A streamlined, personalized learning experience designed to drive effective skill acquisition through the exploration of real-world case studies and projects.

The Concept

This app, tentatively named "Labrynth" is designed to:

  1. Link together a corpus of information (textbooks, transcribed conversations, etc.)
  2. Work backwards from real-world scenarios
  3. Help users quickly hone in on exactly what they need to learn

The goal is to compress months of learning into a matter of hours or weeks, spread over focused study sessions.

Product Idea

A learning platform that enables deep learners to optimize their learning journey when trying to master new fields of knowledge and new domains.

Lesson plans are based on case studies and specific projects the learner tries to accomplish. It leads the learner in deep - to all of the skills they might require to learn to do something fairly complex.

Some examples are:

  1. Preparing to pass a System Design interview, which requires an applied understanding of System Design principles
  2. Graph Database and full-stack app to analyze Supercentarian DNA to make discoveries that could help people live longer
  3. Learning CNC machining principles, techniques and reference to G codes, to build products for sale on Etsy

I’ve had the unique opportunity to observe some extremely high performing learners, and I’m basing the platform off of some of the observations I’ve made on their process and what appears to support their learning.
