I totally agree with you. I also see a huge problem with AI becoming (even more) centralized.
However, I see no problem with AI-generated summaries on SN. I think we can find good compromises there. For example, as mentioned, it could be a collapsible section:
The summary should probably be somewhere near related and perhaps be collapsable.
It could also be turned off by default and is only visible to users who turn it on in their settings. Another option would be that users who want to see AI-generated summaries have to pay a fee.
See discussion about fees here: #170812

But that's the thing: will it be worth for SN to deploy a local AI farm just for article summaries? I would bet they will take out their credit card and create an account at ChatGPT.
I wonder why all of a sudden article summaries are so badly needed as to justify this abomination. Is it that the VCs want "growth" and "engagement" and SEO? They could simply use AutoGPT to create new users, crawl the web in search of "interesting" articles to post and generate AI comment threads. That way they could achieve "growth" and "engagement" and they wouldn't have to bother with flesh and blood people.
I come here every day because I love authentic content. In fact, the threads I enjoy the most are the ones with personal experiences, reflections, good debate... AI would take that away. No, thanks.
No compromises. You give an inch and they take a mile.

Totally agree with you. Fortunately, it's not necessary to deploy a local AI farm just to summarize articles.
I shared this one in another comment: https://cocktailpeanut.github.io/dalai/
With LLaMA and Alpaca a "good enough" ChatGPT-like can be run, without feeding the OpenAI beast
