AI does a perfectly fine job summarizing my boring work meetings, but the entire point of those is to be straightforward and unambiguous and in line with previous similar meetings. You cannot trust generative AI to interpret anything with even a modicum of subtlety or novelty. At best it will give you a slop-rack of a framework you can wrestle into something mediocre but basically usable for a specific purpose.

But a twenty-percent efficiency upgrade with a low ceiling on its quality is not what they're all selling. AI is real, it's here to stay, but good god I can't wait for the bubble to pop so LLMs can settle into the limited use cases where they add value.

It's not really good for work meetings either, I'm sorry to say. If someone turns on the ai transcripts rather than taking real notes I know actions won't happen.

YMMV, which I guesses is a huge part of the issue. My company is pushing AI everything, and I can hear the people running them phrasing things specifically for the assistant. Also, my meetings are not particularly technical and are full of corporate bullshit that I’m sure is all through the training set. It works… fine.

Ah yeah technical stuff it fails at hard
