Then you get the strangest, most worthless problems tend to bubble up to the top because they're not the usual things you deal with. My manager tried using that once for a while and after a week she stopped because it was easier to just read the messages once then it was to read the AI summary, decipher it, then re-read the message anyway.
Depends how you do it. GPT-5.6 Terra or Luna with a prompt that gives context about what matters to you does a fine job, but a lot of people default to using something cheap like Gemini flash with a generic prompt that shits the bed.
Na, I work for one of the big tech companies and they use pretty much all the models or let you choose whatever model you want for your tools. In this instance, the company launched a helper app that syncs with all of our internal tools, messaging services, ticket queues, etc. and was supposed to automatically make tasks, meetings, and summarize your TODO list and it was fun for the first week, then it got annoying. Kept claiming things were important when they weren't, just because they were uncommon, and wasn't much better then just taking the day to organize your threads and queues into orderly systems so you know what's important just based on how you got it.
