A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

This reminds me of the crypto/NFT days where everyone and their brother added a special "blockchain" feature in their product, even when it didn't make sense or was completely unnecessary.
At least that can be turned off in updates.
All these hardware additions, the AI buttons, even Windows taking away the right CTRL key for Copilot, are ugly appendages that, in 20 years, when were clearing out the equipment closest, we'll see some of these and go "oh yeah remember when that bullshit was as a thing for a few years?"
Those days? That was a couple of weeks ago.
