I started working on this idea of using AI to take an input topic and generate an interactive timeline of important events within the topic.

Some topics to try:

"Tell me about the history of space exploration" "When were important fossils discovered?" "Show me when all the nintendo consoles were released"

For now the generated events must be "known" by the LLM. One idea to improve event generation is to hook the AI up to a Wikipedia MCP server or something.

Also interested in adding features like 'expand on this event' or 'show more events between these two'
