Amazon Kindle has introduced an innovative AI-powered Recaps feature, allowing readers to easily catch up on previous books in a series without rereading. This new feature provides brief summaries of key plot points and character developments, similar to a recap before a TV episode. Currently available for popular English-language series, Kindle Recaps aims to enhance the reading experience, although some users express concerns about AI accuracy. Readers can access Recaps by updating their Kindle firmware and finding the 'View Recaps' button in their library.
