In-browser ones? No. With external LLMS? Often. It depends on the purpose of the text.
If the purpose is to read someone's _writing_, then I'm going to read it, for the sheer joy of consuming the language. Nothing will take that from me.
If the purpose is to get some critical piece of information I need quickly, then no, I'd rather ask an AI questions about a long document than read the entire thing. Documentation, long email threads, etc. all lend themselves nicely to the size of a context window.

And what do you do if the LLM hallucinates? For me, skim-reading still comes out on top because my own mistakes are my own.
