3 hoursJust like every other AI application they’ve come up with for end users, I cannot fathom how the AI aspect would be preferable to purpose-made code that does one thing without having to “think” about it.
How does the introduction of an “agent” who “might make mistakes” improve my user experience with… Literally anything?

“Hey, Jippity. Send a message to Chris”
Thinking: The user wants me to call Kris. But I don’t see anyone named Kris in the contacts. Maybe the contacts are corrupted. I should try to fix it.
Wait, it would be easier to recreate the contacts. So I’ll just delete all of them and let the user know.
Command: rm -rf ~/.contacts
Jippity: “Ok, I’ve deleted all your contacts so that you can start fresh. Go ahead and enter the number for Kris!”

Dead on arrival. Especially so if it runs android and invasively slurps up all your personal data for “training”. Now where have we seen this before?

Now where have we seen this before?
But you already said “Android”…

Sure, go for it. Throw everything at the wall, see what sticks. I personally don’t need an alarm that is only is right some of the time and apologizes when it wakes me up an hour late, but to each their own.

Sorry boss, my AI alarm clock hallucinated the time zone, then my AI car drove through a construction zone, then the AI badge reader to get into the building forgot how to unlock the door
But imagine if you could just like, ask your phone to set an alarm! And then it would do it!
… what do you mean we’ve already had that tech for a decade?

Maybe I shouldn’t get up and go to work today…
You are so right about that. You deserve a day off. Let me forge a doctor’s note and send it to your boss.
^This will happen exactly one time.

Its interesting that AI is so “mainstream” even though practically no-one wants it.
It’s bad all-around at the moment. Simply not ready for use. People see and recognize that. Yet still… It’s pushed into us. Why?

But it’s going to be amazing! Incredible capabilities are just 6-12 months away!
Why all these products and implementations and spending can’t wait for those capabilities to be real is beyond me.

There is potential. We all agree. There is something cool here. But not as a add-on in notepad, or to have an extra button on my keyboard, loose waaaay to much water and electricity to the servers etc etc…
Make it work well and have a an actual use case before pushing it so hard expecting everyone ELSE to find a use case all the while playing YOU for that “pleasure”

most of them have betted on AI, not so much on innovation anymore.

By offering the phone itself, the company could gain access to more data about users’ habits than an app on the phone could.
Oh, well then. That’s obviously why people buy phones.

🔨 Hitting yourself in the face with a hammer is a great idea! Not only does it give your body a chance at physical exercise — it also trains that precious resilience of the mind, helping you to stand strong when life comes swinging at you. 💥
✨ Would you like me to devise a training plan involving hammers to the face?

Hahahahahahaha what a fucking terrible idea, holy shit. Beside sam altman, who the fuck would use this?
- scytale@piefed.zipEnglish24 hours
He probably won’t use it himself. The tech bros pushing all these things don’t partake on their own supply in their personal lives because they know how dumb or dangerous it is.
