AI can now summarise a two-hour lecture into detailed notes within seconds, but is faster always better?

Join us as we explore the science of learning and delve into the recent research into the impact of AI. We’ll explain our approach to using AI and the role of “productive friction” within Genio Notes and finish with a product demo that also showcases our new STEM-specific features, designed to make complex equations and dense theories much easier to handle.
