How do you feel about the AI comment summaries?

Excellent - they are great and there should not be a way to turn them off
Great - they provide clarity and are in some way better than reading the comments, but should be toggleable by the market creator
Okay - I rarely read them or care
Bad - They take up space and make the UI worse
Awful - They sometimes mislead me or other users into betting on the wrong criteria

On many markets the AI will attempt to "summarize" the comments and adjust the resolution criteria to include clarifications the creator provided in the comments. In my experience, this is bad. It tends to make the description overly long, it's frequently incorrect about the things it's summarizing, and there doesn't seem to be a way to turn it off (that I know of). I think this opinion is held by many other market users, and I've seen many markets where the description seems like a fight between what the market creator actually intended and the incorrect or unhelpful edits the AI makes (eg https://manifold.markets/bens/i-will-resolve-this-market-no-at-th).

Still, I'm not sure if I'm seeing a representative sample, and I'm curious what the average Manifold user feels. I assume that, since the feature continues to exist, there are people who like it and want it to stay, and I'd be curious about the reasoning there. If it turns out nobody likes it, I'm hoping this poll helps illustrate that.

Maybe this is a sign they should be removed

People should write better markets. And they should stop being lazy and update the markets themselves if they need to.
