I've seen someone use an LLM to summarize a paper to post it on reddit for people who haven't read the paper.

Papers have abstracts...

Sounds fun, if only to compare it to the abstract.

You know, these days I think the abstracts are generated by LLMs too. And the paper. Or at least it uses something like Grammarly. If things keep going this ways typos are going to be a sign of academic integrity.

A proper LLM will include realistic rates of typos eventually. ;)

Amen, Eliza wins.

The humans' mistakes of irrational response still boggles my mind.
