Is there any mechanism to prevent the AI from answering with spoilers? For example, when I ask about a character I don't want information coming from pages/chapters I still didn't read.

Thank you for the sharp feedback.

Because we've been mainly targeting business and technical books, the spoiler-prevention feature is not yet implemented.

However, to make novels and other narratives comfortable to read in the future, I'll definitely consider adding a feature to limit the AI's knowledge based on your reading progress.

Thanks again for the valuable suggestion!

I guess it’s better for non-fiction books in that case. Similarly I would be upset if the LLM spoiled a fiction book somehow.. like figuring out which characters will die in GoT before reading it.

  • I also assumed this is for non-fiction books but then I checked the Github page and the first video shows Alice in Wonderland as an example. This is the reason I asked.

    • Yup, think it's just a poorly chosen example. Although Alice in Wonderland does relate to Mathematics, so maybe it's a better chosen example than we realize!

This is a crucial feature - perhaps implementing a "reading progress tracker" that masks content beyond your current position would make this truly useful for fiction.
