1916621 - GenAI summarize feature doesn't work on longform

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1905898

(Core :: Machine Learning, defect)

Description

[Nicole Weber [:topotropic]]

Go to a very long article like https://mozillamemory.org/detailview.php%3Fid=7600.html and mark the whole text and then select 'summarize'
All I see is the sidebar with ChatGPT selected at the top but nothing happens.
I wish there would be a helpful message about that this is either in progress or that there was an issue

The text is probably way too long for the current implementation. It seems to work with the first 10 large paragraphs ending with "This was before, pre-spreadsheet." and bug 1903900 should make it a little bit smarter although ChatGPT is a provider that supports longer selections than other providers already.

We're also working with design to show some feedback such as a warning if the selection will be truncated. Separately, I noticed these longer articles have plenty of spaces " " which get encoded as "%20" but could potentially be encoded as "+" to be able to pass in more text.
