   Great help to review books

   I imported my kindle highlights, as many others. Now I daily review some highlights (thanks to a dashboard, I am motivated). And where I didn't create highlights, as I only listened to the audiobooks, I get the highlights from others. It also allows to create beautiful quotes. It adds the book cover and matches quote and background with colours found on the book title! Really nice!

   👍 Pros:    Review books|Beautiful quotes|Dashboard motivates

• FEATURE REQUEST: Get notes without logging in

  I'm between apps at the moment! I would have used Notion except it wasn't possible to use the app on an e-ink screen. I need an app I can compose a synopsis on at the same time as export Kindle highlights to using https://readwise.io/, which narrows the options. I'm looking at Logseq at the moment.

• Pocket: It gets worse the more you use it

  Very much agree that Pocket has gotten worse as I've used it over the years. It's so bad I've mostly moved to the much better Readwise (https://readwise.io/). I'd be fully over if they actually supported a decent export (see below). It's sad because I'm probably in the 99th percentile of Pocket users in terms of usage and am happily paying them for Premium. I can't remember a significant improvement to Pocket in 2... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

  I tend to read highlight and annotate using a Kindle, and subscribe to https://readwise.io/ to transfer my notes to the web. I would like to have the workflow to be able to write up summaries of books, if only for my own reference. At the moment reading my notes is like reading a book in itself. Source: 11 months ago

• [Serious] I am sometimes overwhelmed and become emotional as to how useful and amazing ChatGPT is. This is a dream come true.

  Similarly, today morning I stumbled upon a youtube review of a cassette player I intend to buy, however the language is in spanish. I simply used the Youtube Transcribe extension which uses ChatGPT and asked further follow up questions in english. Source: 12 months ago

• [Research] Using AI to pull key points and give a summary of a video. Would this be useful?

  Already done extremely well by Glasp - https://glasp.co/youtube-summary . Source: about 1 year ago

• Made a quick Ruby script that will watch a folder for large text files, summarize them using GPT-4, and save them to Obsidian in markdown format

  I have been working with YouTube/Transcripts for some other stuff. I found this plugin: YouTube Summary with ChatGPT. They have this website too. I snag the whole transcript of a video, and wanted to be able to summarize it without watching the whole thing. Source: about 1 year ago

• Saving Youtube time with ChatGPT

  The best time saver I've found from ChatGPT is an addon that gives you a summary of the transcript. Every youtube channel goes on and on with the history of something in order to make the video longer and get more points, or ads. After about 20 minutes of baloney you already know, you Finally get the facts they advertised. Instead, I just scan the last 50% of the summary for the facts I want to know, saving about...
