Android could soon summarize your notifications for you, similar to iOS

TL;DR Google is working on a new Android feature that automatically summarizes notifications for you.
Unlike Apple’s notification summaries feature, Google’s version will only summarize conversation notifications.
This should hopefully reduce how often they fail, but it remains to be seen how useful they’ll be.
Generative AI models are pretty good at summarizing information, provided you give them enough information to work with. If you feed a reasonably sized PDF to a large language model (LLM) like Gemini, it can easily tell you what the PDF is about without any trouble. If you only give it a short sentence that stems from a conversation, though, there’s a chance it’ll miss the mark. Hopefully Google keeps working to improve Gemini’s conversational understanding, as the company is testing a new feature in Android 16 that depends on it: notification summaries.
