Post Dataset
I decided to collect all my public posts from my blog and social media in a single open dataset on Hugging Face.
https://huggingface.co/datasets/andy-smith-ai/Posts
It is empty for now, but I will soon fill it with everything I can collect myself and try to keep it up to date.
The posts are already public, so this creates no additional risks. But platforms fight data scraping, which makes it difficult to extract data from them.
I believe that my ideas, even if they are sometimes quite banal, belong to the public. Anyone, especially me, can train agents on my data and thus make the world a little better, in my understanding of the word "better" in this case.
This is how I leave my mark on culture, which is a certain form of immortality.
Of course, this strongly motivates me to make these texts a little more meaningful. Having a few people look at you is not the same as potentially having millions of agents look at you. But it makes life much more interesting.
I am not afraid that my ideas will be stolen and implemented. It is impossible to steal the generator of these ideas, which means it is impossible to copy future ideas. Past ideas are no longer relevant. They are only indirect evidence of the quality of new ideas, nothing more. I wrote about this in a little more detail here https://andysmith.ai/2026/Nov/3/ideas-moat-or-not/.
