How to build Karpathy's LLM Wiki. There's a smarter way to use AI with your documents, and it comes from one of the biggest names in the field -- Andrej Karpathy. In this video, I'll show you exactly how to build your own LLM Wiki step by step using Obsidian and Claude Code, so your AI actually remembers and connects everything you feed it. Most AI tools use something called RAG, which means every time you ask a question, the AI searches your documents from scratch. Nothing is saved, nothing builds up. Karpathy's LLM Wiki flips that by having the AI read your documents once and build a structured, interlinked knowledge base out of them. When you add new sources, the wiki grows and gets smarter. In this tutorial, I walk you through the full setup -- creating your Obsidian vault, setting up the folder structure, writing the schema file, ingesting your first documents, and even linting the wiki to keep it healthy. No coding experience needed.
