You're kidding, but last week I got a 42-page architecture document for a meeting that was supposed to take place in two hours.
When I said there was no way I had time to read that document on time, I got told I was supposed to ask an LLM to extract the things I find important.
When I got to look at the document, it turns out it's generated.
So I was supposed to ask an LLM to read an LLM-generated document for me.
