Summarize button placement on mobile views

AI-generated summary

arun raises a concern regarding the placement of the “summarize” (By AI) button on mobile views, noting that it is positioned at the far end of a topic. The user inquires if there are plans to make the button more prominent and visible at all times while reading any part of the topic. Saif agrees, highlighting that for topics with long original posts, the button requires excessive scrolling. They suggest that having the button visible during scrolling or within the topic timeline would be a better user experience, noting this as a point to consider when revisiting the Summarize feature. Ivan_Rapekas provides an update, linking to a related meta discussion about placing the AI summary in the topic header: https://meta.discourse.org/t/ai-summary-in-topic-header/399069.

The “summarize” (By AI) button placement is at the far end of a topic on mobile views. Are there plans to make it more prominent by making it visible at all times, when reading any part of the topic?

I can see if you are in topics with long OPs that the summarize button does need some scrolling and the thought goes for the the button at the very bottom of a topic. Perhaps seeing it on scroll or within the topic timeline might be a better bet

Something for us to think of when we revisit Summarize
