AI Generated Response for Words Not Found in the Dictionary with ✨jAI

[babblebey]

Implementation

• feat: implement search with ✨jAI jargons.dev#202

Summary

Introduce a feature that provides instant AI-generated meanings for words not currently in the jargons.dev dictionary. When a user searches for a word and no result is found, the system will leverage the existing ✨jAI module to generate a definition on the fly. This functionality will be surfaced directly in the search form under a dedicated action: “Ask ✨jAI.”

Motivation

Currently, when users search for a term that isn’t in the dictionary, they encounter a dead end. This can be frustrating and reduce engagement. With this feature:

1. Users always receive a meaningful response, even if the word is missing from the curated dictionary.
2. ✨jAI can bridge the gap between curated content and user expectations, improving the platform’s usefulness.
3. It provides insight into which terms are often missing, creating natural feedback loops for expanding the dictionary.

Goal

• Integrate the ✨jAI module into the search flow to handle missing terms.
• When a word is not found in the dictionary:
  • Display a fallback option labeled “Ask ✨jAI”.
  • Use ✨jAI to generate and display the meaning inline.
• Ensure the UI makes it clear that the response is AI-generated, not part of the curated dictionary.
• Track these queries to inform maintainers about potential new additions to the dictionary.
• Keep the experience lightweight and aligned with the existing jargons.dev design.
