Ah yes, the dark pattern of revealing your interface as bait and then requiring a sign up after clicking "run". This is a gross, dark, user-hostile UI/UX pattern.

100% I hate it. Just pop up when I click inside before I paste or type. Why is that so hard?

I use ChatGPT to summarize. It works well, and I can ask questions about the text I paste into ChatGPT.

I think ChatGPT limits you to a certain number of characters, so you often can't summarize a long article or a paper

People are chunking text, summarizing that, compiling summaries, and then summarizing those.

basically... map reducing.

Currently doing that to summarize ~4k pages of public comments that comprise of ~22 questions.

Does this limit what kinds of questions you can ask of the map-reduced summary of summaries? For example, "how many comments mentioned [concept or theme] across the entire set of comments?"
