  # AI Notes: A Curated Knowledge Base for AI Engineering
  
  This repository serves as a living, curated collection of notes and resources on the state of the art in AI, with a focus on generative and large language models. It is *not* a CLI tool or a library, but rather the "raw materials" and a knowledge base for https://lspace.swyx.io/ newsletter writing and product brainstorming, including cleaned-up canonical references under the /Resources folder. This is an AI Engineering notes repo.
