AI does a perfectly fine job summarizing my boring work meetings, but the entire point of those is to be straightforward and unambiguous and in line with previous similar meetings. You cannot trust generative AI to interpret anything with even a modicum of subtlety or novelty. At best it will give you a slop-rack of a framework you can wrestle into something mediocre but basically usable for a specific purpose.
But a twenty-percent efficiency upgrade with a low ceiling on its quality is not what they’re all selling. AI is real, it’s here to stay, but good god I can’t wait for the bubble to pop so LLMs can settle into the limited use cases where they add value.
