I have massively upgraded (?) the UI for my AI researcher, OpenDossier. It isn't final, at all, but this is my work for the day. This change in the UI is largely due to a common complaint that my previous UI had too little contrast.

As you can see, the sources now have an arrow on them, soon enough you'll be able to expand each source detailing:
1. The main authors/organisations responsible for the source
2. The type of source (personal account, opinion article, official fact-list, etc.)
3. The credibility of the source (a source from an official source would be better trustable than one from facebook.)

Any ideas? Please let me know. I haven't turned this into a public repo just yet, I have some work I want to do before my first version goes public. I also have exams rn, so I can't dedicate too much time & effort.

I have finally landed on a name for my AI political research project: OpenDossier. Unfortunately, since this is the 3rd time I've switched names, I've lost 2 hours of coding activity down the drain.

I have (mostly) completed work on the UI (shown in the attachment! Super proud of it!) and a very basic research feature. Basically, you ask it a question about anything that might relate to politics (I suppose, you could do any question but I like to focus on politics or economics) and it'll use Jina AI's API to search up the subject online. It'll gather a couple sources (listed in the research context window) and answer your question, after which you can ask follow-up questions. There are a couple things I need to iron out, and the code is an absolute mess, sheesh.

Right now, the only research it does is after the very first question. Questions afterward use the sources previously used.

TODO:
- Implement smarter research (can call Jina AI's search multiple times, based on what info it needs or if it is satisfactory; can research for follow-up questions)
- Implement footnotes (the sources are listed, yeah, but it'd be nice to click on a footnote and it'll send you right there.)
- Expand the research context window (it's really basic, I want it to include a TLDR part, with a very simplified bullet point version of the answer, as well as other summaries of the sources, like the authors, organisations, subjects, a basic rundown of the sources, what they talk about, and its credibility.)

Right now, my main gripe is how simple it all is, I want it to feel like a research hub of sorts, with all the tools needed to research a topic. I'd be immensely grateful for any feature suggestions.
