One of the coolest things I can’t wait to come out of AI is what I’m calling Dynamic Content Summaries (DCS).
They are contextually created summaries generated for you by your personal AI, for the purpose of saving you time.
So instead of you having to read and listen to and watch thousands of hours of content per day—which is impossible—your AI will be creating these summaries for you for the most important stuff.
Scenario: Book Too Long, Please Summarize
So imagine you’ve been told that some book is just fantastic, and you know it has some nuggets in it, but you don’t want to spend the 17 hours reading it.
Your Digital Assistant can just create you a 3-minute video of all the best parts.
-
It’s a 3-minute video instead of 17-hour book
-
It’s a perfect deepfake of the author giving that summary
-
The summary compresses it very well, so it kept the most important parts
So now you know the high points.
But even better, you can just tell it:
Cool, I liked that. Give me a 20 minute audio version starting on my drive home tonight.
You talking to your DA named Armin
So now you have a podcast version, also in the author’s voice, but it’s 20 minutes long instead of 3.
Any format, length, and avatar
The power of this will be the complete flexibility in the content you’ll get.
And your DA (or a service your DA has hired) will be working on these constantly for you.
Summary
-
My prediction is that much of the content we consume will actually be DCS’s instead of the original format.
-
Our DAs will know exactly how much time we have and what would work best for us, because they can see our schedule and they know our preferences.
-
We’ll be consuming far more content in far less time.
-
And of course our DA will still sometimes recommend that we do the raw version for certain content.
