📝 Q&A your notes with Notion AI

Our Report: Notion has just intoduced a new Q&A feature which is designed to act like an AI executive assistant—managing, sorting and filing information as per your requests.

🔑 Key Points:

• The feature is available for all Notion users—costing $8 to $10 per person per month—aiming to streamline information retrieval and build upon the AI features already integrated within the platform (note-taking & summarization).

• Q&A functions as a mix of search engine and chatbot, capable of answering queries and linking answers to relevant Notion pages provided they’re stored within your Notion workspace.

• An example used to illustrate the strengths & limitations of the AI, talking about the Notion CEOs demonstration : “He asked for a list of recent articles by David Pierce (that’s me!), which it answered with links to the database pages for those articles. Then, he asked if there were any companies I hadn’t written about recently; the bot, with a combination of Notion data and the so-called “world knowledge” said it had been a while since I wrote about Amazon.”

🤨 Why you should care: This innovation by Notion represents a significant leap in AI-assisted data management, and is a very welcome upgrade to our incredibly outdated method of relying entirely on our mental capacity to store & retrieve information.
