I know it’s unethical and unfair, but I have to, I cannot do otherwise, study a very badly written and boring book. I turn to chat gpt to make notes and summary of the page by uploading photos of the text and asking to do a summary, organized and useful to study in view of a concourse.
Chat gpt (4) refusese to do so becaue it cannot read images and therefore gives vey unuseful advice to create a perfect summary. Is there any app, extension or software that could to this dumb slavish job? The book is written in Italian.

    Pro tip: type it into the chatbot by your own. Then write the summary from what you remeber from typing it in

    You would need OCR, optical character recognition, to extract the text in the image first before feeding it to chatGPT.

    ChatGPT can only use text input, and it can only output text.

      the title is a bad translation I did from Italian. If you are very very curious I can write down a list of book I desperately want to read but I can’t because of this friggin’ book

    It’s not unethical nor unfair to use available tools. As you start noticing a LLM isn’t (yet) a good tool at turning a course into a summary, and using a machine to do so isn’t as efficient in learning as doing it yourself (well, on my time, kids would buy books summarazing a book, then learn by heart the typical essays. This is how you get good grades without understanding the book)

      the subject is superboring, I need to study in a short time and I am not a schoolboy (unfortunately) anymore. I need to do it for a teaching recruitment competition. The book – probably written by a bot – is foul. I love study and I love reading, but this is a torture. I turned to technology to save some of this torture. That’s all.
