Side note: this is actually an area where maybe it's worth looking
into just having automation.

I've actually been fairly impressed with some of the more recent
AUTOSEL AI summaries, and I wonder if it might help maintainers to
have some kind of "summarize this pull request" infrastructure. I'm
not so convinced about the code-writing side, but summarizing
changelogs sounds useful but also rather less scary.

And I'm not suggesting that because I would use it to summarize other
peoples pull requests, but as a way to make it easier for maintainers
to write summaries of their own pull requests when they have lots of
different things going on.

Adding Sasha to the participants, since he's been doing the AUTOSEL summaries.

(Some of them have been just garbage, but a lot of them have seemed
quite reasonable. So as a starting point - rather than as the final
case - I think maybe some of those LLM's might be useful for other
things than making amusing fake videos)
