From a general consumer point of view? If it has AI,it's the latest and greatest. It's got to be better than something without AI. It's opt-put because most people won't opt-out, if only because they can't be bothered. Lacking strong privacy laws, the user agreements probably say that all their data can be used for any variety of uses. "We're going to use your data to help make our AI features better? Oh, sure, that's great!" (Most people won't think of the privacy implications.)

> From a general consumer point of view? If it has AI,it's the latest and greatest. It's got to be better than something without AI. What fraction of general consumers think this? 15%? 5%? I have met zero that think this way, and I muck with the stuff a lot. I think that executives feel this way but I don't think many of general consumers think having AI is the latest and greatest.

That is certainly what the vendors would _like_ consumers to think. It’s not what consumers think, though, particularly in the developed world: https://business.yougov.com/content/50504-ai-integration-into-products-has-a-no-major-impact-on-two-in-five-consumers-purchasing-decisions https://business.yougov.com/content/50504-ai-integration-int... (the headline buries the lede a bit; in most major developed markets it would actively put off more people than it would turn on.)
