It\u2019s a painless but weird symptom. From a search on Google I found this is actually \u201cOlecranon Bursitis\u201d: the bursa, or lubricating sac, on the elbow has been irritated or inflamed somehow, and is accumulating fluid. I\u2019m trying to get into see my doc about this, but I\u2019m not in a hurry because it is not causing any problems. In the meantime I am following the web advice of icing it several times a day, and letting the elbow rest. That means no upper body workouts for now. Fortunately I can still get my biking in.<\/p>\n<p>I had just found out about a new AI-based research tool that\u2019s part of Google\u2019s Gemini called \u201cdeep research\u201d. To use is you start up Gemini and change the model type to \u201c1.5 pro with deep research\u201d. This normally requires a paid subscription but you can try it out for free (I recently got a Chromebook, and a one year paid subscription to Gemini advanced was included). I\u2019ve tried this out on topics of interest that I already knew something about, and was impressed by the results. So I thought this would be another nice test case. I typed in \u201cOlecranon Bursitis\u201d in the query. It listed 23 websites it intended to search as its \u201cresearch plan\u201d:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12350\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/2025\/01\/28\/water-on-the-elbow\/image-338\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-9.png\" data-orig-size=\"552,669\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-9.png?w=248\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-9.png?w=552\" width=\"552\" height=\"669\" src=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-9.png?w=552\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12350\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>I could have edited the plan to add other sites to search, but I just hit \u201cstart research\u201d, and in a few minutes it came back with a report, which I saved to my drive and you can read <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/14jGWLAd6AHDLUH2E5R7OW5nYt_hu_naNZ51nUm34Odg\/edit?usp=drive_link\">here<\/a>. It explained what the condition was, told me the symptoms, Causes, diagnosis, and treatment, and gave me a list of docs in my area that specialize in this. All pretty useful. This is a pretty simple example so I could have gotten similar results without AI on medical websites, then googling \u201colecranon bursitis specialist near me\u201d. But I liked that it extracted a summary from a bunch of sites. I\u2019ve tried this on more complicated topics that would have taken longer to search manually, and found the report to be a good head start, which I can follow up on, if desired, by querying some of the links listed. <\/p>\n<div id=\"jp-post-flair\" class=\"sharedaddy sd-like-enabled sd-sharing-enabled\">\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\">\n<div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-official sd-sharing\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"sd-content\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"share-linkedin\"\/>\n<li class=\"share-facebook\"\/>\n<li class=\"share-pinterest\">\n<div class=\"pinterest_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbionicoldguy.home.blog%2F2025%2F01%2F28%2Fwater-on-the-elbow%2F&amp;media=https%3A%2F%2Fbionicoldguy.home.blog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2025%2F01%2Fimage-13.png&amp;description=Water%20On%20The%20Elbow\" data-pin-do=\"buttonPin\" data-pin-config=\"beside\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_gray_20.png\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"share-end\"\/><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- .entry-footer --><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-author-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"entry-author author-avatar-show\">\n<div class=\"author-avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t<img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=80&amp;d=&amp;r=G\" srcset=\"https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=80&amp;d=&amp;r=G 1x, https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=120&amp;d=&amp;r=G 1.5x, https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=160&amp;d=&amp;r=G 2x, https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=240&amp;d=&amp;r=G 3x, https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25e2835f41aad499102b7dccdf750ee9842e9a75fa2931cd1ba6fa84c47eafd5?s=320&amp;d=&amp;r=G 4x\" class=\"avatar avatar-80\" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!-- .author-avatar --><\/p>\n<p><h2 class=\"author-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\tPublished by <span class=\"author-name\">BionicOldGuy<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- .author-heading --><\/p>\n<p class=\"author-bio\">\n\t\t\t\tI am a Mechanical Engineer born in 1953, Ph.
