In the Weights is a website that queries different AI models to measure how well they recall someone without using tools like web search. The website assigns a strength score based on the models' responses. For example, this tech blogger received a strength score of 641, placing me in the top 6% of names.
The website was created by Thomas Dimson and Joey Flynn, who were looking to get the creative juices flowing again after leaving OpenAI. Dimson said he was thinking about how Google vanity searches are no longer the objective in 2026 as more traffic moves to LLMs.
The results show which models returned answers for a given name and highlight potential hallucinations. The website has been well-received, with many people finding the results intriguing and jealousy-inducing.
