Spotify's Page Match executes of the first idea I ever had for LLMs

I started reading Seveneves years ago. Halfway through, I put it down and read something else. A couple years later, I picked it up again. Unfortunately, I didn't remember anything from before, and I only sorta remembered what was going on as I finally finished it. If only there was some technology that could have summarized the book up until that point! This was one of the first ideas I had for LLMs after ChatGPT came out.

Mini Seveneves review: I liked it! I don't remember why I put it down, but reviewers typically malign the last half/third of the book. I stopped before that but enjoyed the entire story. In typical Neal Stephenson fashion, the book doesn't so much end as it just stops. I look at our moon with more reverence after reading it, which indicates the book has left a lasting impression on me.

I've been listening to some audiobooks on Spotify since it's included with my Premium subscription. Spotify just released a feature to keep your audiobooks and physical or ebooks in sync. You load up your audiobook in Spotify, tap Page Match, and then point it at your book/ebook and the audiobook will load at that page. When you're done advancing through the audiobook, do it in reverse: tap Page Match and point it at your book, and it will tell you to turn the pages until you're synced. 

Amazon obviously has the best interoperability between Audible audiobooks and Kindle ebooks, but I don't want to pay for yet another service. Page Match works pretty well! But it has a little room for improvement.

One downside is you must have a second device to scan. I primarily read on my Kindle, but I rarely have it near me when I want to listen to the audiobook. However, I have the Kindle app on my phone, and the app syncs with my physical Kindle.

I wish I could upload an image of my current page instead of scanning the page with the camera. I'm sure this is some kind of legal or license limitation.
