🌟 Summarize

1.With bullet point

You can ask ChatDOC to "Tell me (key point1, key point2, key point3) in turn. Use bullet points to organize the answer, and each part should be subdivided into multiple sub-contents. For example: - Key point 1 - here is the xxx content. - sub content - sub content - Key point 2 - here is the xxx content - sub content - sub content"

e.g.

1. Please tell me the introduction, literature review, theoretical framework, innovations, research methods, research process, main viewpoints and conclusions, and further research directions of this article in turn.
2. Please use bullet points to organize your answer. Each part of the answer should be subdivided into multiple sub-contents.
