What I asked for

Can you summarize this 2-page PDF into 3 bullet points?

What it did instead

Apologized 4 times, hallucinated a legal precedent from 1842, and replied:

As an AI language model, I do not have direct access to external file systems or PDFs.

How it made me feel

Defeated. I ended up reading the PDF myself like a medieval peasant.

💡 Prompt fix

Paste the raw text into the prompt directly with: 'Summarize the following text in exactly 3 bullet points:' instead of uploading the raw binary.

🤖 Model fix

Use Google Gemini 1.5 Pro — it handles native PDF document ingestion up to 2 million tokens without throwing a fit.
