I've been using Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental large language model to create summaries for the most popular articles with {{Technical}} templates. This article, BlackBerry Limited, has such a template above the entire article. Here is the paragraph summary at grade 5 reading level which Gemini 2.5 Pro suggested:
BlackBerry Limited is a company from Canada that used to be called Research In Motion, or RIM. It started a long time ago and became famous for making BlackBerry phones and pagers, which were very popular. After other phones like the iPhone and Android phones came out, BlackBerry phones became less popular, and the company stopped making them. Now, BlackBerry focuses on making software, especially software that helps keep information safe for businesses, governments, and even in cars to protect against hackers.
While I have read and may have made some modifications to that summary, I am not going to add it to the article because I want other editors to review, revise if appropriate, and add it instead. This is an experiment with a few dozen articles initially to see how these suggestions are received, and after a week or two, I will decide how to proceed. Thank you for your consideration.
