    # The idea behind this method is "give me a collection of texts,
    # and I'll handle the summarization to the best of my capabilities.".
    # It's important to emphasize the "collection of texts" part, which implies
    # it's not tied to any model and expects the "content" to be a hash instead.
    #
    # @param content { Hash } - Includes the content to summarize, plus additional
    # context to help the strategy produce a better result. Keys present in the content hash:
    #  - resource_path (optional): Helps the strategy build links to the content in the summary (e.g. "/t/-/:topic_id/POST_NUMBER")
    #  - content_title (optional): Provides guidance about what the content is about.
    #  - contents (required): Array of hashes with content to summarize (e.g. [{ poster: "asd", id: 1, text: "This is a text" }])
    #    All keys are required.
    #
    # @returns { Hash } - The summarized content, plus chunks if the content couldn't be summarized in one pass. Example:
    #   {
    #     summary: "This is the final summary",
    #     chunks: [
    #       { ids: [topic.first_post.post_number], summary: "this is the first chunk" },
    #       { ids: [post_1.post_number, post_2.post_number], summary: "this is the second chunk" },
    #     ],
    #   }

    # Returns the string we'll store in the selected strategy site setting.
