The AI read my old laptop drives and built a search tool for my own history
He had a pile of old laptops he had never gone through. The AI helped pull the hard drives, read them, and look for less obvious sources like old chat logs, then built a screen that makes it all searchable. He found personal history he had forgotten about.

Why it’s worth knowing
