I am very dependent on getting summaries of sites because I have to trim back where I read. Like many people I know, I’m easily distracted by places where I can snack on news, simply by scrolling through content. I want to be able to understand more than one side of a story so I’m looking at ways to pull information together by aggregating content. Thankfully, a lot of content that I want to review from online sources is set up with structure that an RSS reader can parse. And those RSS readers don’t burn through AI tokens as they strip back information for easy reading.
Thanking Dave Winer for doing that tough work decades ago as IETF codified an important part of our connected world.
