yesterdays supervison meeting was thought provoking. I need to prepare for confirmation very soon, this is making me a bit nervous - I have a lot of work to do before then, but at the same time I feel certain things crystallising and that is exciting.

technical q’s
supervisor bot, how can the functionality be engineered better? What is the state of the art?
knowledge graph to LLM personal research infrastructure / what implementations exist
what can a local/open first infrastructure achieve in comparison to the commercial platform tools

to build:
study companion bot – mapping existing LLM use and sketching what I need to build LLM-use-in-my-phd-research
supervisor bot
(confidence bot) but sketch and design a bit more first

other:
I need to crystalise in clear terms my interest in live performative research in the context of what I am exploring
