Are AI book summaries worth it?

[AION]

The newest models of Claude have improved a lot. It makes almost perfect summaries. I know this because sometimes I read a chapter and then read the summary and it is just perfect. Obviously some books need slow digestion but let's be honest, most books are don't need a slow digestion.

I'm surprised that not more people are doing this. I'm doing it with pop culture books just to get the meat of the book but who says you retain all the information when you read the book anyway? Most books are filled with fluff and nuisance that I forget what the main talking points are in the book.

I'm doing the same with youtube videos. Most guys take 20-40 minutes to just talk about a lousy talking point droning on and on about the same talking point wasting people's time because they think are so special and everybody should listen to them. Just feed it to claude 4.6 and then take that text and feed it to elevenreader (voice mode) and you will have a much fruitful experience.

And the most important point is this, you can't interact with a book or video but you can interact with AI in the sense of asking questions and making remarks. That is how you learn: by interacting with the matter, not just consuming like a drone.
