The discussion focuses on the potential of local deep research tools that utilize local LLMs (Large Language Models) for processing and retrieving relevant information from document corpuses without relying solely on vector searches. Commenters express optimism for the local, low-fidelity approach but critique current implementations as messy. Suggestions include integrating graph databases to enhance interconnectivity and creating interactive outputs. There’s also a push for collaboration among various deep-research projects rather than fragmentation, particularly emphasizing local tools and RAG strategies. Alternative tools like Onyx are mentioned, which offers advanced UI/UX but not in a local context, highlighting the need for innovation and synergy in the field.
