Performative nonsense.

You have less interest in sifting through multiple articles and wiki pages sent to you by a stranger with a prompt than the one paragraph same stranger selected as their curated point.

And pretending like you’d act otherwise is precisely the kind of “anti ai virtue signaling” that serves as a negative mind virus.

AI is full of hype, but the delusion and head in sand reactions are worse by a mile

No pretending here. I don't ever ask an LLM for a summary of something which I then send to people, because I have more respect for my co-workers than that. Nor do I want their (almost certainly inaccurate) LLM summary. It's the 2020s equivalent of "let me Google that for you": I can ask the bag of words to weigh in myself; if I'm asking a person it's because I want that person's thoughts.

Then let him curate it as his central point. If he finds even that too tedious to do, I absolutely have no interest in reading the output of a program he fed the context to (particularly since I also have access to that program)
