  1. An analysis of the quality of AI-generated summaries of a technical paper, comparing outputs from Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Perplexity, and NotebookLM. The author finds Gemini to be the best, highlighting the importance of context in prompting and the potential usefulness of AI summaries as 'extended abstracts'.
  2. This blog post details an experiment testing the ability of LLMs (Gemini, ChatGPT, Perplexity) to accurately retrieve and summarize recent blog posts from a specific URL (searchresearch1.blogspot.com). The author found significant issues with hallucinations and inaccuracies, even in models claiming live web access, highlighting the unreliability of LLMs for even simple research tasks.
  3. An analysis of how well different AI systems perform in describing images and answering questions about them. The article compares ChatGPT, Gemini, Llama, and Claude using four images: a hand, a bottle of wine, a piece of pastry, and a flower.
  4. This article explores the use of Google's NotebookLM (NLM) as a tool for research, particularly in analyzing the impact of the Aswan High Dam on schistosomiasis in Egypt. The author details how NLM can be used to create a research assistant-like experience, allowing users to 'have a conversation' with uploaded content to gain insights and answers from the material.
  5. The article discusses the ability of AI systems to interpret images, particularly focusing on the limits and reliability of these systems in answering questions about visual content. The author, Dan Russell, challenges readers to evaluate how well AI can identify objects in provided images and what kinds of questions can be reliably answered by AI.
  6. - "Deep Research" is a new trend in AI-driven research using large language models for multi-step investigations.
    - The article compares Deep Research systems, highlighting capabilities and limitations like generating tangential content and handling nonsensical queries.
    - Includes systems such as Gemini Advanced 1.5 Pro, OpenAI’s Deep Research, Perplexity’s Deep Research Mode, and You.com’s Research Feature.

  7. This blog post discusses strategies for staying up-to-date on the rapidly evolving field of AI, covering resources, tools, and techniques for tracking news, research, and developments.
  8. Key concept: Setting mental models can help users understand how to interact with products that adapt over time. This chapter covers:
    Identifying existing mental models
    Onboarding in stages
    Planning for co-learning
    Accounting for user expectations of human-like interaction
    Key concept: To build effective mental models of AI-powered products, consider what you want people to know about your product before their first use, how to explain its features, and when it will need feedback from them to improve.
  9. - This blog discusses using Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Bard and ChatGPT4 to summarize lengthy texts.
    - The author compares the performance of these LLMs on summarizing texts, particularly focusing on the classic gothic tale, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, and Chapter 10 of their book, The Joy of Search.
    - While both Bard and ChatGPT4 show promise in creating decent summaries, there are notable differences between the two, with ChatGPT4 being more adept at handling larger amounts of information.
