  • I suppose my big annoying soapbox opinion is one I’ve had with every other accidentally useful application of ChagGPT - why the hell are we using LLMs to do this? Splitting text into paragraphs can surely be done with a much simpler NLP model (i.e. one that doesn’t require a GPU per user), and it’s not like speech-to-text is new.

    I imagine you could use a simple model with ‘good enough’ accuracy, and then have some basic keybinds to very quickly fix up the rest of it. Goto-next-paragraph, goto-previous-paragraph, move-sentence-forward, and move-sentence-backwards would do the job.

    N.B. The general process is cool though! I’m neurodivergent like you and I’ve spent a lot of time lately thinking about how to make the actual process of note taking as seamless as possible. I’ve found that reducing the barriers between me and the metaphorical paper has really increased how likely I am to write my thoughts down.
