I can't believe people don't think "Clippy, but it destroys the environment" is useful.

It's gonna turn out that these companies could've saved billions if they'd listened to the average online poster instead of going all in on the AI mass psychosis

Would you like an unhelpful technology that burns down an acre of forest every second? Well, do I have a deal for you.

I have a new (M4) iPhone and iPad, and the intelligence features are worthless, actually, worse the worthless, they make the experience worse unless you turn them off.

I tried it on my laptop and it only made Siri worse. Even the simple stuff that “AI” was supposed to solve like remembering context (“where is [restaurant]? Ok call them.”) didn’t work.

Specifically made the decision to replace the battery and hold onto my iPhone 13 to avoid this ai bullshit.

I tried it out briefly on my Mac because it's my job to know about this junk, but I'm not going to have any recommendations about it other than "here's where you turn it off."

Environmental aspects aside, what I want AI for is, like, have it be able to identify an animal/plant that I'm looking at...things that enhance my knowledge, not take the place of creating.

I do astrophotography. Remove the satellite tracks from my photo, don't create an AI generated galaxy!

This isn't hard, for people who have the most basic grasp of what would make people happy! Unfortunately, sociopaths kinda lack that.

(And again, this is exclusive of the environmental issues, which by themselves should shitcan genAI)

They can't stop texts from random numbers that just say, "hi," yet I am supposed to believe they provide useful AI?

If 10-year-old Siri wasn’t a hearing-impaired, schizophrenic moron I’d be way more psyched for v2.
