Comment on: Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash
A fluent conversation was a great party trick but the novelty has worn thin. It had some value but overall having to have a conversation with a tool to get something done is frustrating. Like tasking a junior employee on their first day with advanced tasks and wondering why they keep missing the mark. I want a tool not an opinionated support unit, and often will stop that conversational experience by prompting it away. Having to do that is annoying.I personally also don't have much use for generating images and videos, at least not regularly. I feel like they want us to use AI tools full time,
