## Description

**`extractwisdom` addresses the problem of there being **too much content** out there, as well as it taking too long to take manual notes on the content you do actually read, watch, or listen to.**

The tool _extracts wisdom_ from any content that can be translated into text. Some examples of content include:

- Podcast transcripts
- Academic papers
- Essays
- Blog posts
- Really, anything you can get into text!

## Functionality

When you use `extractwisdom`, it pulls the following content out of the input.

- `IDEAS`
  - Extracts the best ideas from the content, i.e., what you might have taken notes on if you were doing so manually.
- `QUOTES`
  - Some of the best quotes from the content.
- `REFERENCES`
  - External writing, art, and other content referenced positively during the content that might be worth following up on.
- `HABITS`
  - Habits of the speakers that could be worth replicating.
- `RECOMMENDATIONS`
  - A list of things that the content recommends Habits of the speakers.

## Use cases

1. **Decision Support:** Allows you to quickly learn what's in a particular piece of content so you can decide if you want to consume the full source material or not.
2. **Note Taking:** Can also be used as your note taker. It's designed to replicate the type of capture that you might have done if you took notes manually.
