At least, the iPhone notifications summaries were bad enough I eventually turned them off (but periodically check them) and while I was working at Google you couldn’t really turn of the genAI summaries of internal things (that evangelists kept adding to things) and I rarely found them useful. Well… they’re useful if the conversation is really bland but then the conversation should usually be in some thread elsewhere, if there was something important I don’t think the genAI systems were very good at highlighting it
Completely agree, those summaries are incredibly bad. I was recently looking for some information in Gemini meeting notes and just couldn’t find it, even though I was sure it had been talked about. Then I read the transcript itself and realised that the artificial unintelligence had simply left out all the most important bits.
Strongly disagree with the TLDR thing
