The problem is the value you speak doesn't seem to be materializing. I barely know anyone who sings the praises of saving time with AI, but I know plenty of people who complain about peers doing a shoddy job because they used AI to do

Yes, Steam Machine is optimized for gaming, but it's still your PC. Install your own apps, or even another operating system. Who are we to tell you how to use your computer? This is glorious

I don't know, I think people need to think more like "should I do this?". Speaking from my own experience, I've made all sorts of random apps for fun using LLMs to enable that endeavor. But then I run out of tokens, and

Yeah none of this is helpful. Even writing in Google docs is inundated with AI in your face features I don't need 99% of the time. I don't mind the "make this clearer" suggestions in email writing, sometimes that does he

This is the type of thing that really doesn't interest me. Algorithmic junk that sounds "good", similar to the kind of writing an LLM generates. Sure you can do it, but the main use cases are AI Slop (IMO). Slopify is a grea

Where will LLMs be trained if no-one generates new posts and information like this? Do we sort of just stop innovating here in 2026? Probably not but it's a serious consideration.

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 wit

If Facebook would lay off jamming all the AI features in my face that would be nice. Applies to basically all big tech really.

I like Spotify but it has got a bit bloated with audiobooks, podcasts and features like videos that I do not care for. I also find Spotify makes finding and listening to albums less intuitive, it feels like everything is setup for passive l

I used to see disposable vapes dumped on the street until they were banned (thankfully). All those wasted batteries and microcontrollers is really wasteful.

The hardware could absolutely be made useful too. For example Apple could have a decent low bloat long term support OS that can be deployed on a device. Maybe it doesn't have all the bells and whistles but who cares, at least it would

This is terrible, and like search engines and the internet in general should be audited closely and the companies held responsible. In my opinion these tools shouldn't talk like a human, and should be banned from "making friends&

The first video is problematic? the owl faces forwards then seamlessly turns around - something is very off there. The guy in the third video looks like a dressed up Ewan McGregor, anyone else see that? I guess we can welcome even more qual

Aside from security fixes and improvements I rarely use anything in OS X that wasn't there many versions ago. I wish they'd try a "long term support" model instead of annually releasing bug ridden OS versions that don&#x
