It's insulting to read your AI-generated blog post

I'm sure lots of "readers" of such articles fed it to another AI model to summarize it, thereby completely bypassing the usual human experience of writing and then careful (and critical) reading and parsing of the article text. I weep for the future.

Also, reminds me of this cartoon from March 2023. [0]

I'm curious if the people who are using AI to summarize articles are the same people who would have actually read more than the headline to begin with. It feels to me like the sort of person who would have read the article and applied critical thinking to it is not going to use an AI summary to bypass that since they won't be satisfied with it.

Are people doing this or is this just what, like, Apple or someone is telling us people are doing?

Because I've never seen anyone actually use a summarizing AI willingly. And especially not for blogs and other discretionary activities.

That's like getting the remote from the hit blockbuster "Click" starring Adam Sandler (2006) and then using it to skip sex. Just doesn't make any sense.
