This maybe an unpopular stance, when i read to learn something new or a fictional story, i noticed AI summaries misses the nuances of good writing that our brain intuitively picks up.
For some reason (maybe there is a psychological explanation), information retention is better when i read from the source rather than an AI summary.
Reward of learning something new in its original form, vastly outweighs ‘time saved’ by AI summaries.
What works for me, pass 1 is scanning through original text, pass 2 is digging into areas that needs deeper understanding and pass 3 is assessing understanding using AI summaries.
