An AI tool I would actually use - Study guides for monographs

One problem I see with tools such as Logos/Verbum is that they provide the tools for using particular methods/techniques but rarely the training to use them. (The academic blog provided the few exceptions that come to mind.) And while there are books illustrating the use of the methods, there is nothing directing one's attention to the methods. This post gave me a brilliant idea:
Please create a "study a monograph" feature which does the following:
- Creates a reading plan based on chapters or major headings - number of entries based on the text not the user.
- For each day's reading produces a synopsis/reading of the day's reading.
- For each day's reading produces a question & answer sheet which (a) reproduces the discussion questions in the text if they lack entry boxes and (b) creates questions that emphasize the content of the text and how the case for the author's position is being built. Provide the questions in two options - one for high school graduates/college freshman and one for entry level seminarians.
- Allow the resulting package to be edited by the user to create a finished product for a book discussion group.

I presume you are making a feature request? Not referring to a feature currently in Logos?

Yes, I put it in the forum for feature requests i.e. feedback

I fully support this. I had been using publicly available AI for this purpose for some time, and I posted here on the forums about my dream for Logos to pursue this some time ago.
When the Sermon Assistant AI was implemented I started using the question function in the to create questions about chapters of books . It is a useful way to learn and retain information from books you study. I also started using the Summarise function inside resources to get an overview of a book chapter before I read it, for the same reason, to learn and retain more effectively.
I think AI can extremely useful when it is given the purpose of helping us to learn. Instead of getting it to tell you things it can help you learn. There are many studies that support questions, summaries and outlines for better learning outcomes. I can't wait to see these kind of things implemented in Logos.

notebooklm is a closed system. I uploaded a chapter and captured the faq , study guide, and briefing. It is tedious, but the output is not half bad.

Yes, but haven't tried it.
