       Show HN: Explainpaper  - Explain jargon in academic papers with
       GPT-3
        
       heyo! Explainpaper lets you upload a research paper PDF. If you
       don't understand a formula or sentence, just highlight it and the
       tool explains it for you  I built this a few weeks ago to help me
       read a neuroscience paper, and it works pretty well! I didn't fine-
       tune GPT-3, but I do take a lot of context from the paper and feed
       that into the prompt (not the whole paper).  Ppl have uploaded AI,
       biology, economics, philosophy papers and even law documents. Works
       in Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French and more as well!

       | Those law documents - that is probably us :)

       | Can you comment a bit on fine-tuning options available at the
       | user-level. There were cases (~15%) where it summarized is
       | exactly on the wrong end of the spectrum (disclose within 3 days
       | for example, came out as disclose post-3-days).

       | I was hoping it would magically translate some of the math
       | notation into plain English but I think it kind of just ignored
       | it. Would love to see this.
       | 
       | Minor feedback: the UI doesn't really convey that the highlighted
       | text is being processed. I was wondering if anything was
       | happening at first.

         | of people have asked.
         | 
         | And we'll push an update soon with better loading :)
