you only encounter it by interacting with the browser in an atypical way

Leaving my pointer on a random place that happens to be a link is atypical? I don't think it is. I had this pop up to me a couple of days ago and I didn't even understand what could've triggered it, I was wondering if I clicked something or pressed a key unconsciously.

and the thing it does is a thing that AI is actually pretty decent at (summarizing text)

Pretty decent? Just passable, if the text is about some run-of-the-mill topic.

Doesn't do that for me. I have to hold left click on a link for over a second to trigger it.

And yeah, pretty decent. It can produce a basically summary of a fair amount of text pretty quickly and generally accurately. It's not an expert wordsmith, it won't give a deep and thoughtful analysis of the poem you pointed it at or anything, but that's not the use case. The use case is "give me the key bullet points of this article so I can decide if I should give it more attention.", and it does that job pretty well.
