Reading Documents at Scale

Turning unstructured policy text (reports and statements from the World Bank, IMF, FOMC, and others) into usable information. Summarize long documents faithfully, extract structured facts into tables, compare several documents, and classify content by topic or stance. You learn prompts that keep the AI grounded in the source and resist invention.
