Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

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.
