We tend to think that markets reflect consumer choice. But the artificial-intelligence boom has been powered by the investment decisions of concentrated capital rather than by consumer demand.
There’s a balance here, and I definitely lean toward: make the “professional” message with all the possibly pertinent details, but also use the AI to summarize it to as short a summary as possible that hits the points I consider essential, and put that at the top with fair warning: excessive detail follows.
When using AI to generate documentation specifying things like how to build a piece of software, I say: go for the detail, but review for consistency. Detail beats ambiguity for LLM coding agents because if it’s ambiguous the agents tend to just make assumptions and keep rolling.
