Right, but it's triggered by the user themselves, per the article:

I agree the AI aspect is largely a red herring. But I don't think running an algo like a spellchecker within an open document is so awful. If people hate it or it's not useful or accurate, then it should be binned, ofc. And if we're ignoring the AI aspect, then it's just a meh/crappy feature. Not especially newsworthy IMHO.
The autosummarization of unopened documents is closer to the image search functionality I mentioned above than it is to a spell checker running on an open doc. Both autosummarization and image search are content retrieval mechanisms. The difference is only in how its presented. Does it just point you to your file, or does it process it further for you? The privacy aspects are equivalent IMO. The only difference is in whether the feature is useful and well received.
