This tweet had me thinking, what’s the “minimum viable ontology” or list of terms to quickly get situated within a new domain, and improve your prompts?

Vibecoded https://t.co/IQS0grHbB5 to showcase this idea on a few example domains -- been wading into 3D recently and found this initial "domain map" helpful.

SO much to improve here but wanted to get this initial idea out! Would love thoughts / feedback :)

In pedagogical terms, this would be similar to "conceptual thresholds." AI generated all of these initial "domain maps", but obviously an expert would probably curate better lists!

I went with lists vs. graph for simplicity, and linked out to examples vs. bringing them in (MVP)

@sharifelkomi thanks sharif!! definitely want to bring in images for lots of the visual concepts (love how they did it in that original UI components project)

@dilipsrajan working on it! 🫡 and lmk if there are other "domains" you'd be interested in seeing !

@tylerangert This is super interesting!! Especially if these maps could be “blessed” by experts, it could help steer the agents towards the right path.

I guess in that way they’d act sort of like skills… I do see these domain maps as sort of “skills” for humans !

@ptaranat Oh nice! Curious what the project was for?

@0xAmruth Considered crowdsourcing but as of right now… if anyone asks! The latter is a good question and is currently just an editorial decision, but could use a framework to think about
