In today’s video, we’re going to be showing you how to use GPT-3 to easily summarize a book or paper in PDF form.
Let’s face it, sometimes we don’t have the time to read a 200 page, 73,000 word document from start to finish. But with GPT-3, you can quickly and easily extract the most important information and summarize it into just 230 words.
This can be a great way to create a step by step guide, research notes, blog posts, or even mid-journey prompts.
In this video, we’ll be using the book “Deep Work” by Cal Newport as an example. This book is 190 pages and 73,000 words, so it can be a daunting task to get through it all.
But with the help of GPT-3 and a Python script with the OpenAI API, we’ll show you how to automate the process and make summarizing a breeze.
So if you’re ready to learn how to use GPT-3 to summarize a book, let’s get started!
