I would say a lot of people would like competent assistants to do stuff like “Show me every email that mentions a hard drive order.” But not the AI they are trying to foist on us now.

24·3 days agoIt’s perhaps worse when they pepper-spray an elderly person in the face, but every assault by federal agents on citizens should peeve everyone all the time.

36·3 days agoWell that’s not good. I use it to set alarms fairly often, and up until recently it used to work for navigation. I think me refusing the AI crap made “navigate to 123 main st” quit working.

Now I just have to finish de-Googling email and file storage.



Yeah that, but with natural language input and output. To me the (mostly) natural language is the most impressive part of generative AI.
