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.

    Is the book so obscure that you wouldn’t be able to get a digital copy you could just paste into Chat GPT?

    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)

    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.
