Came across it while trying to get the bing sidebar to answer questions about pdfs and finding it frustrating. There seem to be many such services popping up as alternatives to the famous brands.
Maybe I was just too impatient, but I would ask it to summarize this paper imitating Ethan Mollick’s example and it would either ask me what paper I wanted to summarize or return search results for “how to summarize a paper”
I was just experimenting with chatpdf.com today and it works pretty well too, just drag and drop the pdf file into the browser
Interesting. I hadn’t heard of chatpdf. Will have to play around with it.

Hm I haven’t had an issue with the bing sidebar technique. What wasn’t working for you?

It didn’t register that the pdf was there in the main body of the browser tab
