    To be fair, my father tends to make messages quite incomprehensible by adding irrelevant information all over the place. Sometimes going on for multiple screens while it could easily have been a 2-3 sentence message.

    Sadly I think AI would even be worse at picking up what information is important from that. But I understand why people want it.

    As for very active groupchats, I am not gonna read +25 messages a day, but being able to glance the gist of it would be awesome.

      The exact point at which the gist of it can be manipulated, leaving out context and nudging you toward a different opinion than you might have formed if you’d read the whole thread.

        Friend, I think you need to reconsider your world perspective a bit. Not everyone is out to get you all the time.

          To be fair, when Facebook was still big the privacy advocates were being branded as paranoid. Those turned out to be right after all.

            Even if the claim ends up being true, you can literally just read the messages that were sent and realize see that the summary was wrong.
