on other hand i would love a Gemini finetuned on all papers or ability to refer to papers in my prompt when researching an idea.

right now, I download pdf and upload it to chatgpt to bounce ideas.



Are you familiar with NotebookLLM?


What is that about


That sounds like a terrible idea to me not gonna lie


why


In my experience as a published academic author all the LLM will make up all kinds of plausible papers I “wrote” that don’t exist, academic positions I’ve never held, and the like.

Even if you give it a paper directly I’d not believe it to be reliable. Maybe it could help search for papers, but that’s it.
