Love the context size and podcasts but never understood the UX. Why notes? Is there a difference between my notes and AI notes? Guess that's not my mental model of working with papers (Phd in psy) or I'm just spoiled by elicit.

I'm an autism researcher. I also don't get the "notes" thing. Am I supposed to use it as my note taking app (e.g. like I use OneNote?). Sometimes interactive discussion with the LLM about a paper can speed learning. I've used audio overviews for the drive to the lab, but I haven't been able to get the overview to go *hard* into the science.

Notes help when sharing the notebook with others. By sharing snippets with others, they immediately have conversation starters that they can use to dive deeper into the material.
