FR I think more people actively dislike it, which is a form of care.
Whenever I ask random people who are not on IT, they either don't know about it or they love it.
That's a boring perspective fuck you for sharing.
Thats an interesting perspective thanks for sharing.
Depends on the implementation.
Just about everyone I know loves how iPhones can take a picture and readily identify a plant or animal. That's actually delightful. Some AI tech is great.
Now put an LLM chatbox where people expect a search box, and see what happens... yeah that shit sucks.
As I biologist I'd like to correct your sentence: "iPhones can take a picture and pretend to sometimes manage to get close to identifying a plant"
It sucks at identification too
