AI Thread Summary
The Nebo app is discussed as a note-taking option, with mixed opinions compared to popular alternatives like Notability, which offers a recording feature that syncs notes with audio timestamps. Goodnotes and CollabNotes also provide similar functionalities. Obsidian is highlighted for its unique capability to create interconnected notes, resembling a personal Wikipedia, and is favored by some Ph.D. students for thesis management. Specialty notebooks with smart pens that record handwritten notes for later upload are mentioned as another option. Traditional methods of note-taking, such as using a physical notebook and later rewriting notes, remain a reliable choice for many.

Most folks use Notability with its recording option, where what you write while recording is attached to the time mark of the recording. It allows you to tap on a note and jump to where the relevant information was said in the recording.

Goodnotes and CollabNotes (free but somewhat experimental) also have these features.

Another option to consider is Obsidian (free) which can link your notes together to make a personal Wikipedia-like network of notes. Many users swear by it, not at it. I've been using it to collect my note mess into a coherent whole, a never-ending work in progress.

Some Ph.D. grad students use Obsidian to manage their thesis notes. There are many videos on Obsidian on youtube.

A third option is the specialty notebooks, where a pen records what you wrote and can be uploaded to a computer later on.

Of course, the tried and true scheme is to write your notes in a simple notebook or fancier Moleskin notebook and then rewrite them elsewhere during quiet moments of reflection.
 
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
