This is just google scholar but doesn't seem to answer any of my questions.
Assuming this was working, why would someone need it when they can install the google scholar browser extension?

The key differences:
- You can ask a question in plain language or search with boolean operators (can't do that in GS)
- We show three sentence excerpts from full-text articles, and GS only shows fragmented sentence excerpts to show how your search matched.

>boolean operators
I've been using them in Google and Google Scholar for a long time

You are right, those are supported. GS is a great resource, we're just trying to help and move things forward. GS has not done much in 15 years, and arguably, more could be done. We will experiment, listen, and keep refining.

I would really love to see an integration of science, or at least my fields of interest (agriculture, aquaculture, soil science, chemistry, botany, biology) but I would really like to see it work with something like Siri.....
ie; I want an AI Digital Assistant that can do what Google, GS AND Siri does, combined with some additional basic tasks like reminders, alarms, taking notes etc.
I think a free version of this would take off, , and perhaps a professional paid version would be purchased by people that work in the relevant industries which would support you and your team, as well as the free users.
For example - I have a diary which I use, I always have notepads and pieces of paper here and there, I have whiteboards, my computer and files of course, and then my books, google etc etc - I need to have them all amalgamated and backed up, shared across my devices.....I want a digital assistant to do that!
example continued; - I am in the back paddock of the farm and I am planting a new variety of tomatoes.........
A digital assistant would, at my voice prompt, record the time, date, variety and location of the plant. It would also save any notes that I may mention, let's say soggy ground, or hard clay......
The digital assistant, at any time I asked, could tell me what is planted at any location, and when etc etc
It would remind me when to prune or harvest.....it could give me tips or instructions of prompted.
It could have access to my last soil test and make recommendations.
It could tell me good companion plants, it would know the sun directions, upcoming weather.
It could regularly scan news articles and alert me when anything relevant to this tomato and it's environment appears.

>The issue of getting access to papers and using them for more than just reading them one at a time is something groups have advocated for decades.
I'm going to assume this is all legal issues.
I wonder if you could set up shop in Sweden and let your AI sweep ZLibrary??!!!
