In the example I mentioned, ChatGPT 4 did keep all essential statements of my texts when reproducing shorter versions of them. For example, it often wrote one high-level sentence which skillfully summarized a paragraph of the original text. As far as I understand, this is what the author meant by 'summarizing' vs. 'shortening (while missing essential statements)'.

I was impressed at those high-level summaries. If I had assigned this task to several humans, I'm not sure how many would have been able to achieve similar results.
