Like everything else in tech right now, Amazon is leaning into AI. This time, it’s the Kindle Scribe getting a generative upgrade, with new notebook features designed to make your handwritten notes less chaotic.
The update adds AI-powered tools that can summarize pages of notes into bullet points, refine messy handwriting into cleaner text, and find notes by describing what you wrote, not just matching specific words. In theory, that means you can jot things down and worry about clean up later (or not at all).
