@nixCraft Some automated AI does have a practical application, voice-to-text recognition is one of them.

The trouble is these days you never know if AI tools are being ethically applied to improve user experiences, or being shoehorned in so that people can profit off the user's data and make the user's experience worse.

When I see AI is in a product I use, I look for ways to turn it off. Absolutely sick of it being crowbarred into every conceivable thing.
