That is a big if.
A summary cannot be better than what is summarizes in any was but brevity. It can be much worse.
- dylan604 1y agoLet me remind you of recipe websites as an example of how summaries can be better by ignoring all of the useless crap that has nothing to do with making the dish
- lossyalgo 1y agoAgreed, but only assuming the summary is accurate and not hallucinating, which the current state of LLMs sadly can not guarantee. Maybe next year?
- brookst 1y agoNoise reduction has tons of value in many fields.
- rectang 1y agoI find that if I describe an esoteric bug to a high powered LLM, I often get to my answer more quickly than if I trawl through endless search results. The synthesis itself is a valuable addition. Frequently I cannot even find source documents which match my exact circumstances; I’m uncertain whether they actually exist.
