- one of the benefits of LLMs is the ability to summarize things
- one of the dangers of LLMs is the ability to summarize things
- read any AI product’s value prop and it will say a variation of “it frees you up to do higher order/ value tasks”

- we are in a rush to get to the next thing, almost assuming the next thing is more valuable than the current thing. It usually isn’t
- this is just a quick summary
