There are already apps available that sell the lie that you can fully understand concepts, principles and even entire philosophies by quickly reading the 10 summary points they give you – for a charge.
They can’t.
There isn’t a cheat on real learning.
You have to read the whole work if you are to have any idea what the author intended to share. And even then, the wisest move to understand any real learning is to read as many books about the same subject by as many different authors as you can, if you want to understand the objective truths.
The only books that it might be safe to summarise and look at this way would be stories, fairytales or fiction. Because they are stories anyway and it doesn’t matter what conclusions you reach, as the outcome of your conclusions cannot usually hurt anyone, including you.
As you will surely realise already, cheating actually misses the point of reading such books anyway.
AI is about to offer you a no return ticket to a summary of life outside of you. Not a genuine or truthful one. But a mere overview, written using someone else’s filter or terms.

Great post! I completely agree that real learning cannot be cheated, and reading the whole work is necessary to truly understand the author’s intentions. I’m curious about your thoughts on the use of AI in summarizing complex texts. Do you think it’s helpful for those who are short on time or does it ultimately do a disservice to the reader’s understanding?
Thank you for your feedback and question. The blog is part of an ebook Actions Speak Louder than Digital Words that I published for kindle last week. I’ve been serialising it as the different pages here on my blog and this one is part of a list of 10 Actions which make up Part 3. In the second part of the book, I have also listed 20 Realities of living with AI and using cheats is specifically covered in Reality 13 (https://adamtugwell.blog/2023/06/11/the-reality-of-ai-pt-13-use-cheats-and-the-only-person-you-cheat-is-yourself/), but also referred to more broadly in Action 2 (https://adamtugwell.blog/2023/06/11/living-with-ai-action-2-dont-ask-ai-to-do-anything-for-you/), as well as being touched on elsewhere. The complete ebook is about 15k words broken down into 42 blogs here, which have now had a link to the next page added at the bottom of each. If you’d like to read through, the beginning is here (https://adamtugwell.blog/2023/06/11/the-biggest-threat-from-ai-today-isnt-ai-its-us/). The Realities are listed here (https://adamtugwell.blog/2023/06/11/the-different-parts-of-this-ai-reality-that-we-all-need-to-know-and-understand/) and the actions are listed here too (https://adamtugwell.blog/2023/06/11/living-with-ai-ten-actions-we-can-all-take-to-reject-and-halt-the-ai-takeover/). Best wishes, Adam
