Not really, and I don't think it's also being used by others.

Not quite using LLMs for note-taking; I stick to good old pen and paper. Sometimes my brain needs more RAM than any AI model can offer!

I am really bad at note-taking, and it has always been the case. However, LLMs help a lot in this space (at least for me) because they accelerate note-taking. What they are missing is the personal context, however it is a lot less effort just to add the personal context, as to note our everything. So last time what I did was read the book (usually also listen with Edge TTS), and for each section, I asked the model to create bullet point notes. I put this into my PKM and extended it with personal notes or questions. The skeleton in case of books is always the Heading (H1/H2/H3). Such way you get a nice detailed structure (extended with your personal ideas). For podcasts, I also leverage this and actually built a product around it as I was obsessed with the open sourcing of Whisper :D In case of podcasts, is a bit more difficult, as we don’t have the structure that a book would provide. However some guess can be made to auto detect Topics, or at least get an idea of sections. When we have the written information, it is easy to integrate into your fav PKM.
