I'm a big fan of lightweight, automated tests. Despite that, I still default to manual verification. Usually I do both. Automated tests omit a certain type of feedback that I think remains important to the development loop. Automation

This inspired us to do a little exploration. We used the top cited papers of a few authors to produce a list that might be interesting, and to do some additional analysis. Take a look: https://github.com/allenai/author-

But falling behind is very different than "being done." I think the original tweet is very much an exaggeration, and agree with the point made here. Google is no where close to "being done." Sure, their answers aren&#x27

Maybe you're right. But I'm not convinced. I feel like the mass centralization of content is starting to unwind a bit. As things scale the generalized sources usually become less valuable to me. With more content comes more noise,

Yup, I definitely agree that they're harder (and noted this). But I'm not sure I agree with your second point. Or rather, I think there's some nuance to it. Sure, using AI to treat people without a human in the loop would cle

Which is why it's important for folks to start applying AI to more interesting (but harder, more nuanced) problems. Instead of making it easier for people to write emails, or targeting ads, it should be used to help doctors, surgeons a

I haven't jumped on the GraphQL train yet, largely for a lot of the reasons the original author calls out. I see the benefits, but they don't outweigh the costs of converting our existing API surface area. Like most of the tools w

Yup, this is a known limitation: > What are the limitations? There are several known limitations. Tables are currently extracted from PDFs as images, which are not accessible. Mathematical content is either extracted with low fidelity or

I agree! Maybe we'll work on vi bindings next...

We don't. We extract the content and present it as a single document. Page anchors can be used for navigating between sections. We present a table of contents that makes this easy. For instance: https://papertohtml.org/

That's the idea! If all goes well we won't need this software anymore. In a best case scenario the publishers start accepting HTML, and gone are the days of having to convert PDFs to something better...!

We don't retain the uploaded document. We cache the extracted content, as to make things more efficient. See https://papertohtml.org/about : > What data do we keep? We cache a copy of the extracted content as well as

Yay, glad to hear it! If you end up viewing one of these on your Kindle, let us know how well (or not) things work. We're not sure if it's something that we can distribute as OSS just yet. It relies on a few internal libraries tha

Yup, right now we use GROBID, do some post processing and combine the output with other extraction techniques. For instance, we use a model to extract document figures[1], so that we can render them in the resulting HTML document. Also, we&

Yup, we're definitely thinking about this. Our focus right now is on providing a tool folks can run it on whatever papers they have access to. For instance, some researchers might have access to documents that aren't available to
