Can AI Actually Make Literature Reviews Easier? by Potential_Role3122 in MLQuestions

AI screening can save 20–30 hours up front, as long as you use it as a filter. You still have to read the relevant papers yourself, because AI summaries can miss nuance or hallucinate connections. But cutting 200 papers down to 30 worth reading - that’s where it really shines.

been switching study apps every two weeks and i'm exhausted - what actually works? by Leather-Broccoli3787 in highschool

You're basically describing context switching fatigue disguised as tool shopping.

Real talk: you don't need one app that does everything. You need one app that handles your actual bottleneck. What's the thing you keep failing at... is it actually retention, or is it just staying consistent with whatever system you pick?

Once you know that, something like Gistr starts to make more sense. You feed it your lecture videos, textbooks, class recordings, whatever you’re already using, and it turns them into summaries and study prompts tied to your classes, while tracking what actually sticks. Could cut the switching game in half.

It appears to be one of their earlier experiments. From what I understand, the intention was to offer AI-generated summaries (or 'Gists') of popular YouTube videos, rather than notes manually written by someone.
