> ChatGPT seems to be very good at generating cards btw
So you can get very good at memorizing occassionally incorrect information? If I'm going to put in the effort to drill information into my brain with spaced-repetition, I have a high bar for the accuracy of that information.
I hand write all my cards, and think it's commonly accepted that the manual process of producing the cards is an important first step in the memorization process.
I'm not sure if this really saves time in the end. At least for me the part of taking a lot of information and thinking about condensing it in a few sentences is the most important part of making flashcards or similar summaries.
A lot of the time I end up never reading them, or reading them once because I already indirectly studied everything in the process of making them in the first place.
