Probably not reading them. A family member told me at their work someone had an LLM summarize an issue spread out over a long email chain and sent the summary to their boss, who had an LLM summarize the summary.
Most people don't read them. It reminds me of back before the AI days when you would have to spend time writing up those email summaries to send the team only that nobody reads them. I proved this to my boss that for 4 weeks straight I embedded that to the first person to email this +email gets $50. I never had to pay out because I was right 4 weeks in a row before I stopped. So many emails and newsletters in companies are done just because it's just how it's done for proper communication. Its just mindless busy work that wastes my time.
Greetings fellow Lord
From experience, people who tend to do this wouldn't understand the issue even if they spent all the time in the world reading the email chain, or attending the meeting.
That's what gives them a false sense that AI is helping, because AI is as good as themselves with comprehension and then saying plausible things that aren't real. On the upside, it takes 2 seconds instead of an hour.
