This feature will fetch the page and summarize it locally. It’s not being used for training LLMs.

And what do you think the local model is trained on?

It’s practically like the user opened your website manually and skimmed the content

It is not. A human visitor will skim through, and pick out the parts they're interested in. A human visitor has intelligence. An AI model does not. An AI model has absolutely no clue what they user is looking for, and it is entirely possible (and frequent) that it discards the important bits, and dreams up some bullshit. Yes, even local ones. Yes, I tried, on my own sites. It was bad.

It has value to a lot of people including me so it’s not garbage.

If it does, please don't come anywhere near my stuff. I don't share my work only for an AI to throw away half of it and summarize it badly.

But if you make it garbage intentionally then everyone will just believe your website is garbage and not click the link after reading the summary.

If people who prefer AI summaries stop visiting, I'll consider that as a win. I write for humans, not for bots. If someone doesn't like my style, or finds me too verbose, then my content is not for them, simple as that. And that's ok, too! I have no intention of appealing to everyone.
