Dynamic Content Summaries (DSC)
Dynamic Content Summaries are AI-generated summaries of source content customized for individual principals
I don’t think humans are going to be consuming most content directly from the source within a few years.
Instead, I think our Digital Assistants (our personal AIs) will be creating individual summaries of the content for us, which I’m calling Dynamic Content Summaries (DCSs).
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.
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.
Text summaries
Audio summaries
Video summaries
Of any length
Performed by any personality
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.
