In fairness, sometimes it is also a really cool border that apologizes for not being able to help me with something right now. 🤣

Hey it also does a bunch of great image, audio, and video processing that is actually useful

Presentation first
Function second

And it’s usually the most terrifying possible interpretation… “Project cancelled, everything deleted” and the messages are just about some meetings people had to move. 🤦‍♂️

I'm waiting out new phones until the AI features implode upon themselves.

It also looks cool in my car, Scott

Glow border looks nice.

More RGB is always the solution 😂

This is why we turn it off right away, Scott.

i got a new laptop from work that had an NPU, which i had never seen before. disabled it in device manager.

Why would you disable it? There is some cool stuff you can do with those locally

Scott did the AI tell you to say that? Blink if you are in danger

I do not want it. I do not want a thing trained on the works of others with the intent of replacing me. I want to know the things I know and not guess at them from a drunken science experiment. I do not want incel billionaires having control over creative spaces.

I do not want to share a space with the godawful decisionmakers somehow put in charge.
