And sometimes you have all the data, but it’s too much, so you ask for a summary and ask elaborating questions.

I've found this ineffective for anything where I need a factual answer and brilliantly where I need the vibe of subjective or fictional things.

Bad: summarizing scientific research or technical data

Great: finding travel ideas or clarifying aspects of a franchise's fictional universe.

I've found Kagi's Universal Summarizer useful for:

  - Long reads when I just want to know the conclusion
  - Reading terms of services that I would otherwise have blindly accepted
  - Summarizing key requirements in large tender documents prior to bidding on work

As for summaries in general, FastGPT is so useful I apply it to most of my searches.

Especially if I'm looking for a small fact buried in the first results.
