This is the specific kind of thing I want to use LLMs for. I want to describe "what I'm looking for" to an LLM and have it go out each week and digest the most recent 100 papers, and occasionally pop up to tell me when there's something potentially relevant to read.

While you could do that it would just give you false hope. Pubmed contains research from all areas of natural sciences, and you need to get used to the wording to know feasible the claims of an article are. Some examples:

- Usually research goes in vitro (in a petri dish) -> in animals -> in humans. An article can claim that they've found the cure for cancer, if its just in vitro it doesnt mean much. The medicine needs to go to the right place, it should not have too bad side effects,...a very small percentage of medicine that works in vitro makes it to human testing. - even if it works in humans it might not be feasible to manufacture it. We have got medicine that costs over 3 million USD per dose, obviously there is a cost when the manufacturer just scraps the project even if it works perfectly.

Thank you! I didn’t realize Pubmed had these options. I just found that it has “Create an RSS feed” of any search ter, which is fantastic. Thanks for the pointer!
