    Do they care? No! Will they push more AI? Yes! Will they listen to the consumers? I don’t think so.
    Same thing happens with lot of products over the years. Companies push new stuff that we don’t want, and a year later becomes a regular thing! They push AI day by day, from websites AI chat help to in app AI assistant. Do consumers like it? No, but still you gonna find it everywhere! and now they push it in computers and looks what it happens! No sales!

    Call me crazy, but at some point, they need to look at their data or their consumers and do the right thing.

      It’s maddening that they did actually take away the headphone jack from all modern phones and there’s nothing we can do about it even though it objectively sucks

        there’s nothing we can do about it

        Outright rejection of their shit, I won’t buy new smartphones from them. Currently using a dumbphone although the case is breaking and they don’t make this one any more. Nokia could work but costs quite a bit tbh. Getting rid of the phone entirely is tempting.

        If I ever buy a smartphone again it will be the cheapest second hand thing I can find. Maybe don’t even take it out the house, it can stay at home like a landline and will be restricted to at most LAN connections only.

      Microsoft pushing a feature that most users will never use or care about? Never!

      It’s because they’re looking at data and a lot of you forget that. They don’t care if realistically everyone hates it if the data says everyone would use and benefit from it. Why is this so much more important? If you looked at the marketing behind AI they faked this entire industry by showing companies the “right” data to have them back them up but it’s just manipulation from the industry to make something profitable like NFTs.
