No. I'm not at all interested in an editorialized summary of an article. Either the title entices me to read the article, or it doesn't. Both are fine. Besides

Besides, I'm here for the discussion, not the articles.
If you want to have summaries, create a browser plugin that automatically summarizes the articles. Do a write-up about the plugin and submit that as an article itself.
I'd read that! You then scratched your itch and others might benefit. Without changing HN itself. Win-win!

Why even bother having URL submissions then? > create a browser plugin that automatically summarizes the articles I assume that by "automatically" you mean by LLM? No thanks. The only reason HN interests me is that it's curated by humans. Otherwise, I could just skip HN entirely and have LLMs pick out lists of articles for me to read. In fact I could skip HN users comments and generate those by LLM too. Who needs humans, right?
