> Planning and reasoning are the two greatest areas of research in AI right now Yes, but it's not something LLMs do. At all. Each day I get more certain that AGI will surprise everybody and come from a nearly moneyless garage. And it will break every AI strategy people make. > I can get a summarization of a several-hour-long-call with better recall than I could have had myself The problem is, it works most of the time, when it doesn't it's dangerous. That "most of the time" part isn't large enough for people to ignore the failures. But this is one of the things where LLMs can shine. Your example looks more like it's solving a really bad problem that shouldn't exist, but it's possible that this adds lots of value somewhere.

A lot of failures will be ignored and only fixed if and when necessary because they are not usually very dangerous. A lot of information we produce is never acted on. And a lot of information we do act on is incorrect or unfounded anyway. Also, in places where hallucinations are unacceptable, double checking some facts is still far cheaper than manually producing the whole thing from scratch. I bet we will see an avalanche of incorrect and funny information coming from customer support systems. And yet very few people will want to pay for better fact checking.
