No, I don't want you to summarise the page!

I've talked about LLMs a few times here - the TL;DR is that I find them useful for certain use cases.
Searching something complex? Great.
Checking my code, or helping me with a problem in said code? Count me in.
But summarising a page I'm reading? Absofuckinglutely not.
One of the things I really enjoy about the web is surfing it and reading. Reading is one of the great joys I get from the web, and in general. Why would I want a bastardised version of your words presented to me by a computer when I can read the actual words you took time to write?
LLMs have their place and are useful tools in my opinion, but I'm getting sick of them being crammed into every facet of computing.
Hopefully the bubble will burst soon and we can all enjoy an LLM enriched web, not an LLM hijacked web.
