You're right. It is partly greater computing resources, partly recent algorithmic advances, and partly the availability of large amounts of data which the more complex networks require.

Still using it? We went from Gmail (for business) to Notes because IBM Sales managed to convince the leadership that they could track and file everything better in Notes. Now we have to deal with this shitshow of an app where it takes 10 cl

You think an app can't provide more than $5000 in value to a customer in a year? Under any circumstances? Any kind of app?
