Using AI for legal and academic workflows, where efficient verification is everything, I would like an option for in-line citations. In principle, think of NotebookLM; better implementations are Coral and Anara (and a few other academia-focussed AI products).
In DEVONthink, a citation must be chased to the source via a footnote, which causes you to lose place in a longer document.
On the other hand, the citation links are rendered in markdown and will still function in other applications - so there’s a design trade off.
Nevertheless, is this optionality that can (or will) exist?
Can’t you just include in your prompt an instruction to include the case or document citation and a link back to the paragraph or page of the original document in support of each proposition? It works reasonably well for me.
