Hi everyone, I would love to make up a system that enable me to give and AI an ebook (or a list of more ebooks) and have as output a book summary (chapter by chapter) in markdown.

Can someone suggest me how to do it, or point me in the right direction?

any help is appreciated, thank you

You could run GPT4All apparently you can put files into it's folder (there's a specific one) and it will be able to pull data from it. Maybe this would be a good contender, dont know what size documents it can take though.

Look into Perplexity. Not sure if it takes ebooks directly as an input, but depending on your sample size you may be able to copy and paste the text of each chapter into it and generate summaries that way.

There’s also a YouTuber named Matt Wolfe who catalogs AI tools on his web site Futurepedia, try searching there.
