Extracting Information with Smart Write and Edit

First, let's look at extracting information from notes. Often when we have book notes or podcast transcripts, we don't want the entire thing; we just want certain parts or quotes. That's where Smart Write and Edit comes in.

Podcast Transcripts

With Smart Write and Edit, you can extract quotes from a podcast transcript in seconds. All you need to do is highlight the title of the note and extract it, and make sure the thing is less than a thousand words. You can also create a separate Mem and use specific commands to extract quotes from the interview.

Notes on Books, Topics,

Smart Write and Edit, you can simply type in "quotes from [book title]" and it will generate the quotes for you. You can even get more specific and ask it to give you quotes about a specific topic. For example, if you wanted quotes from the book Dopamine Nation about dopamine, you can type in "quotes about dopamine" and it will bring you the 10 different quotes from the book.
