finally, after two years of hype I have some usage for llm.

we import descriptions of products from a seller. the problem is they are mental ( probably written by chatgpt :)) and are way too long. we need only small blurb.

I put our style guide and given text to chatgpt and I get somehow reasonable description back. then editors still need to check it, but it's way less work.

I've seen a comic at the beginning of the LLM hype where:

* in panel A, some guy is proud to use ChatGPT to turn 3 lines of text into a 10 pages report

* in panel B, some girl is happy to use ChatGPT to summarize the 10 pages report into 3 lines

It was meant to be _satire_, not the sales pitch ;)

Reminds me of a great joke tweet:

> ZIZEK: that AI will be the death of learning & so on; to this, I say NO! My student brings me their essay, which has been written by AI, & I plug it into my grading AI, & we are free! While the 'learning' happens, our superego satisfied, we are free now to learn whatever we want
