It's actually possible to use LLMs to assist literature reviews. We built a product that works smashingly. The key is to keyword extract, use a vector database and do search based generation.

Our key insight is that the process of citation needs to be handled outside the LLM. They're good for text processing and summarization but as you said, the LLM itself is poor at citation.

I can imagine taking the citation tree and using the LLM to compact the hypotheses, results, etc. for each node in the tree and sticking that in the vector database could get you pretty far.
