Reply to comment by niclas_wue in [P] I built arxiv-summary.com, a list of GPT-3 generated paper summaries by niclas_wue

>That’s actually a really good idea. Would you be willing to pay for such a feature? Something like 1$ per paper? That would cover the cost for the GPT tokens

That would bankrupt me (though i'm already basically bankrupt) others may find that acceptable however. Can it be applied on books? Book chapters? How does it deal with equations, does it need it to be in latex or pdf ok too? Does the pdf need to be converted to text?

Yes, it can be applied to every document, a book would be more expensive, because it has more text and thus more input tokens. The pdf needs to be converted to text, because the API only accepts text, some equations which can be written using Unicode are directly put into the network and it can understand. Other equations are currently skipped. So far I have spent almost 100$ in tokens to summarize the papers, so there need to be some paid features in the near future or a reduction in the amount of papers.
