After AI for the rest of us, Part IV and Web maps for the rest of us, let's continue chronicling our use of low-brow AI for good, that is to help us present our rebranded cambridgeshire.ai Prospectus. We already documented how human and computer interaction works best (see also here and Update 2 here), and we'll continue to do so.
I recently had Google Gemini summarise our Prospectus into an Executive Summary (see here). I then had AI summarise it again to help AI build a SurveyMonkey survey. But being limited to a 300 character prompt, I had to manually shorten it to fit. Presto! We got our survey faster than you can say: SurveyMonkey…
Summary
Here is the Executive Summary summarised by Gemini:
This document outlines a plan to improve Cambridgeshire's digital landscape. Here are the key points:

Note: compare that to Gemini re-summarizing this into:This plan aims to improve Cambridgeshire's digital world for everyone. They'll focus on helping people get online, using social media for good, and fighting climate change with social science. Ideas include a Wikipedia advisor for the NHS, online patient communities, and a climate change knowledge center. Everyone from government to universities to local groups will work together on this, and they'll keep checking in to make sure it's working. The ultimate goal is to make life significantly better for Cambridgeshire residents now and in the future.
