Omnesis: a local AI that answers questions about 10 years of my digital life

I have more than ten years of digital life scattered across dozens of different apps. What if I could just ask it questions?

What I connected

This is Omnesis. It gathers everything in one place and runs at my home, on my own computer.

I connected WhatsApp and Telegram (almost 400,000 messages), emails since 2010, the calendar, photos, bank accounts and even phone data: steps and health.

Normal questions

Then I ask it normal things. What do I have on next week? How much did I spend this month? How much time did I spend on my phone?

Okay, maybe I shouldn’t have asked that last one.

What did I do last Saturday?

That’s my favourite question. Omnesis cross-references calendar, photos, expenses and messages and rebuilds my day. And I can go back as far as ten years.

There’s also a timeline for each person: everything we wrote to each other, photos together, shared events, in order.

Everything local

None of this data ends up in someone else’s cloud: it’s all indexed here and the model that answers runs on my computer. All you need is a good graphics card.

On privacy: all the data you see in the video is made-up sample data.

A second brain

The next step is having it with you all the time: from your watch, from your earbuds, one question and the answer comes from your own digital memory. A second brain, but yours.

Would you want one too? Ask me anything in the comments on the video (it’s in Italian).
