I'd suspect that a "gister" (as in "give me the gist") website comprised of a ChatGPT/LLM with retrieval-augmentation would be able to destroy this behavior.

I'd suspect that a "gister" (as in "give me the gist") website comprised of a ChatGPT/LLM with retrieval-augmentation would be able to destroy this behavior.
1. Some gister app scans your favorite site for new articles
2. Gister sends LLM the news outlets you're interested in
3. LLM gives you the gist without the sensation of all the news.
... Honestly I suspect it'll be so distruptive that it'll probably require all news outlets paywall or die.

Some of the summaries were hilarious though, like five sentences explaining that an announcement was made, but not the actual announcement.
