You: takes 2 hours to read 1 book

Me: take 2 minutes to think of precisely the information I need, write a well-structured query, tell my agent AI to distribute it to the 17 models I've selected to help me with research, who then traverse approximately 1 million books, extract 17 different versions of the information I'm looking for, which my overseer agent then reviews, eliminates duplicate points, highlights purely conflicting ones for my review, and creates a 3-level summary.

And then I drink coffee for 58 minutes.

We are not the same.

For bonus points:

I want to live in the world of Hyperion, Ringworld, Foundation, and Dune.

You know, Dune.

They aren’t thinking of information that is in the text, they are thinking “I want this text to confirm X for me”, then they prompt and get what they want.

I think it's either that, or they want an answer they could impress other people with (without necessarily understanding it themselves).

Oh, that's a good angle too. Prompt the LLM with "what insights does this book have about B2B sales" or something.

It's this. He doesn't care about the details, he just wants the trivia. He's not interested in understanding anything, he just wants the power point version of reality. Cliff's notes for reading assignments in school.
