Summaries are less interesting than my getting the information in the first place. My general hierarchy for sifting is:

Title -> Abstract -> skim directly to the section(s) that are most interesting or answer a question I have.

For most papers, I can gauge interest based on the title. But there are so many!

I have a secondary problem of being able to find research on a topic: quantitative linguistics. Arxiv has a category on Computation and Linguistics, but it is mostly LLMs.

Yup, so you'd like to:

1. Given your resources, be able to the filter out the sections that are relevant to your topic of interest 2. Find resources that related to a topic

In order of severity pain points, is this correct? What is the goal of your research?

What the newsletter app does: it groups materials in up to 5 topics and generates an article for each topic based on the resources you've provided
