AI Summary Fatigue Is Real, and I'm Opting Out of Some of It

Every app now summarizes. Most summaries I rewrite anyway. I'm being choosier.

My notes app, my email, my meeting tool, all summarize now. The pile of summaries is its own job.

Half I rewrite because they flatten tone or guess at meaning. The summary became the draft.

I now turn off summary where I'll read the source anyway. It's less noise, not less help.

Summaries are great when I won't read the original. They're a tax when I will.

Be choosy. Not every text needs a robot telling you what it said.
