LLM go brr and crap out a load of fluffy text that wastes the time of a recipient. Why not go for concise and get your point across quickly and effectively?
Think about it: if people are going to be using AI to condense emails and make them more readable, why send such pointlessly big, fluffy emails in the first place? Just seems like a waste of electricity and water.
If people are struggling from email overload anyway, why pile on with more of it?
Even the idea of asking it to write a "persuasive" email—asking a machine to write something to effectively manipulate someone doesn't sit well with me. Yes, marketing is ultimately targeted manipulation, but this feels like breaking some kind of taboo by encouraging it in the marketing materials.
Marketing materials show Gmail, but doesn't Gmail already write and summarize email too via Gemini?
- ramsdev 2y agoI appreciate your feedback. Scribix is designed to create concise and effective emails, not to generate unnecessary fluff. The aim is to help users manage email overload by drafting clear, to-the-point messages, saving time for both the sender and recipient. Regarding persuasive emails, the goal is to assist in professional communication, ensuring messages are well-structured and impactful without being manipulative. Ethical considerations are a priority in our design. As for Gemini, it is integrated with Gmail and offers a range of AI features. However, Scribix is more specific, focusing exclusively on enhancing email communication efficiency. Additionally, Gemini is part of Google's premium plan, which can be quite expensive. Scribix aims to provide a cost-effective solution that integrates seamlessly with both Gmail and Outlook, offering tailored experiences for diverse user needs.
