Everyone pretty much hates it, its just here is one of the few places online where money and stupidity can’t be waved around frantically to hide that.

    One million Americans is 0.3% of Americans. Millions is not the point to fixate on, when broadly discussing the people developing negative reactions to the bullshit foisted upon them. Insisting it was foisted gently is equally missing the point. This is an ongoing impact from every goddamn angle. Search is worse because they forced AI (and you can maybe opt out). E-mail is worse because they forced AI (and you can maybe opt out). Messages are worse because they forced AI (and you can maybe opt out). Social media is worse because they forced AI (and you can maybe opt out). Fucking porn is worse because they forced AI (and you can maybe opt out).

    Repeatedly insisting ‘I don’t think it’s that big a deal’ is not an argument. This frustration and annoyance is REAL. It’s strong enough and widespread enough that some people assume it’s universal! At what point do you at least consider it a user experience pitfall?

      We’re just going in circles now. They haven’t “forced” AI on all those things. No more so than candy’s being forced on me at the checkout aisle.

      This frustration and annoyance is REAL.

      Speaking of “repeatedly insisting” things.
