# AI Continuous Learning: Quick-Start Implementation Guide for Ziwei

**For Busy Builders**: Cut through the theory and get building

---

## 🎯 What You're Building

A system where AI **autonomously learns about Ziwei** by:
1. **Discovering** new information from the web
2. **Extracting** structured knowledge
3. **Resolving** conflicts between sources
4. **Improving** over time without human retraining

---

## 🏗️ Minimal Viable System (Start Here)

### Step 1: Knowledge Base Structure (30 mins)

```json
// data/ziwei-kb.json
{
  "concepts": {
    "星" : [
      {
        "id": "化祿",
        "canonical_name": "化祿",
        "definitions": [
          {
            "text": "主財富與好運",
            "source": "wang_tingzhi",
            "confidence": 0.95,
            "url": "..."
          },
          {
            "text": "代表獲得與享受",
            "source": "keji_ziwei",
            "confidence": 0.90,
            "url": "..."
          }
        ],
        "applications": [...],
        "conflicts": [],
        "last_updated": "2026-02-19"
      }
    ],
    "宮位": [...],
    "組合": [...]
  },
  "sources": {
    "wang_tingzhi": {
      "name": "王亭之論述",
      "credibility": 0.95,
      "last_checked": "2026-02-19"
    }
  }
}
```

### Step 2: Web Scraping Pipeline (2 hours)

```javascript
// services/scraper.js - Minimal viable scraper

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

class ZiweiScraper {
  async scrapeSource(source) {
    const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
    const page = await browser.newPage();

    try {
      await page.goto(source.url, { waitUntil: 'networkidle2' });
      const content = await page.evaluate(() => {
        // Extract text (customize per source)
        return {
          title: document.title,
          text: document.body.innerText,
          timestamp: new Date()
        };
      });

      await browser.close();
      return content;

    } catch (error) {
      console.error(`Error scraping ${source.url}:`, error);
      await browser.close();
      return null;
    }
  }
}

// Schedule: Run weekly
// cron: 0 2 * * 1 (Monday 2 AM UTC)
```

### Step 3: Information Extraction (3 hours)

```javascript
// services/extract.js - Use Claude to extract structured knowledge

const Anthropic = require('@anthropic-ai/sdk');

class KnowledgeExtractor {
  constructor() {
    this.client = new Anthropic();
  }

  async extractFromText(rawText, sourceId) {
    const response = await this.client.messages.create({
      model: "claude-opus-4-6",
      max_tokens: 2000,
      messages: [{
        role: "user",
        content: `
Extract Ziwei concepts from this text. Return JSON with:
- concepts: [{name, definition, applications}]
- relationships: [{from, to, type}]
- confidence: 0-1

Text:
${rawText}

Respond ONLY with valid JSON.
        `
      }]
    });

    return JSON.parse(response.content[0].text);
  }
}
```

### Step 4: Knowledge Integration (2 hours)

```javascript
// services/integrate.js - Add to knowledge base

async function integrateNewKnowledge(extraction, sourceId) {
  for (const concept of extraction.concepts) {
    // Find or create concept
    let existing = kb.findConcept(concept.name);

    if (!existing) {
      // New concept
      existing = {
        id: generateId(),
        name: concept.name,
        definitions: [],
        conflicts: []
      };
      kb.add(existing);
    }

    // Add definition with source
    existing.definitions.push({
      text: concept.definition,
      source: sourceId,
      confidence: extraction.confidence,
      date: new Date(),
      url: sourceUrl
    });

    // Check for conflicts
    const conflicts = detectConflicts(existing);
    if (conflicts.length > 0) {
      existing.conflicts = conflicts;
      // Flag for human review
      queue.addForReview(existing);
    }

    // Update timestamp
    existing.last_updated = new Date();
  }
}
```

| **Sources Covered** | 3-5 carefully selected | 10-50+ automatically |
| **Update Frequency** | Quarterly | Weekly |
| **Conflict Handling** | Manual reconciliation | Automatic detection + review queue |
| **Knowledge Growth** | 20 new concepts/month | 200+ new concepts/month |
| **Freshness** | Often stale | Always current |

---

## 🎓 Scaling Up (Optional Enhancements)

### Add Knowledge Graphs
```javascript
// Use Neo4j for relationship queries
async function queryGraph(question) {
  // Find all 3-star combinations where化祿+化科
  const results = await neo4j.query(
    'MATCH (star1)-[:COMBINATION]-(star2)-[:COMBINATION]-(star3)
     WHERE star1.name = "化祿" AND star2.name = "化科"
     RETURN star3.name'
  );
  return results;
}
```

### Add Expert Review Dashboard
```javascript
// API endpoint for human validation
app.get('/api/conflicts-to-review', (req, res) => {
  const pending = kb
    .filter(c => c.conflicts && c.conflicts.length > 0)
    .filter(c => c.reviewed !== true);

  res.json(pending);
});

app.post('/api/conflicts/:id/resolve', (req, res) => {
  const { id } = req.params;
  const { resolution } = req.body;

  const concept = kb.find(c => c.id === id);
  concept.resolved_conflict = resolution;
  concept.reviewed = true;
  concept.reviewed_by = req.user.id;

  saveKB(kb, './data/ziwei-kb.json');
  res.json({ success: true });
});
```

### Add Multi-Agent Coordination
```javascript
// Deploy specialist agents
const agents = {
  planner: new PlannerAgent(),
  researcher: new ResearcherAgent(),
  synthesizer: new SynthesisAgent(),
  validator: new ValidatorAgent()
};

async function multiAgentResearch(topic) {
  const plan = await agents.planner.planResearch(topic);
  const findings = await agents.researcher.research(plan);
  const synthesis = await agents.synthesizer.synthesize(findings);
  const validated = await agents.validator.validate(synthesis);
  return validated;
}
```

## 🎯 Key Takeaways

1. **Start Simple**: Don't build the perfect system, build a working one
2. **Iterate**: Add complexity as you learn what matters
3. **Automate**: The goal is less human effort, not more
4. **Verify**: Always maintain sources and confidence scores
5. **Learn**: Watch what the system discovers that you didn't expect

---

**Remember**: The goal isn't artificial perfection—it's systematic, continuous improvement with full transparency about what you know and don't know.

Good luck! 🚀
