The Long and Short of AI

“I am fed up with Raichand,” Swami told us the other day over coffee. Jigneshbhai and I ignored it. That was nothing new.

“So, I got onto LinkedIn to look for a new job.”

That made us look up. It had been a while since Swami had done either.

“It has changed a lot,” he said. “Every time I write something, there’s a prompt—‘Rewrite with AI.’”

Jigneshbhai raised an eyebrow. “And?”

“It writes everything for you,” Swami said, warming up. “Summary, experience, all of it.”

“Does it say what you want to say?” Jigneshbhai asked.

“Yes. But longer,” Swami admitted. “Much longer. Everything becomes… bigger.”

He handed us a printout. It ran into four pages—his entire career, now expanded.

“That’s just the profile,” Swami continued. “Posts are even longer.”

Jigneshbhai looked at the pages, then at Swami.

“Does anyone read all this?”

Swami smiled, as if he had been waiting.

“That’s the best part. There’s also an AI summarizer. It reduces everything to 250 words.”

I paused. Jigneshbhai leaned back.

“So first it expands your career…” He took a sip of his coffee. “…and then it compresses it.”

Swami nodded, pleased with the system.

Jigneshbhai smiled. “You need AI to say more, and AI to say less.” Another sip. “Efficient.”

Swami finally paused.

For the first time, he seemed to notice the joke.
