I would if the arrival of ChatGPT has sort of taken the wind out of Marginalia's sails as a human-directed search engine. It seems likely that the future of answering one's questions using the internet, is an LLM giving a straightforward, concise answer that is free of the quirks of a human author. Therefore, there is less motivation to search for personal websites and read website makers' own writing.
For example, imagine an old-school hobbyist website that contains information about some obscure band or author that can't be found elsewhere on the web, and doesn't readily show up in a Google search. Yet at the same time the author writes terrible prose, uses annoying HTML/CSS, or goes into tiresome political rants, etc. Instead of using a Marginalia-like search engine to discover those sites and read them directly, wouldn't it be a superior experience to have an LLM gorge on all those sites and then tell you just the facts that you care about?
