#23I did try to run it four times, and in each case the result was semi-random: it looks like picking 4 random sentences that open paragraphs. There was not a single case when I would consider the output useful-ish.

#24It sounds like a joke, I tried to reduce a technical manual but it didn't... well... I don't really know how to expect anything. This however: https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-03-13/china-... worked really well.

It isn't really built for manuals etc. It is mainly for blog posts or news articles.

Can you please let me know the article that you tested it on?
Maybe you could try the advanced summarizer and see if it gives useful results.

#28I love the idea. The implementation did not produce the expected results ( article shown on HN - https://amp-economist-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.economi... ).
That said. Keep at it. It seems like a viable and valuable service.
