WhatsApp is getting an AI chatbot because of course it is
I am so very tired of every company nonsensically shoehorning “AI” into their software to appease shareholders and investors. Discord shut down their AI chatbot in less than a year – take notes from that.
It also attracts users. Using fad “tech” terminology makes them feel superior than the rest. They think “Oh I’m a tech expert because I use an AI toaster”.
Another good example are “gaming” web browsers. Some people actually think they’re better (beyond the looks).
This is a basic marketing strategy. It actually works (just for selling nonsense, of course).
Pretty much every web browser except Firefox is just Chromium with some extra crap slapped on it, they’re all functionally the same.
I generally agree.
Nonetheless, Vivaldi does outclass the clones.
I’m tired of them creating popular services and then just shitting all over them, cramming in whatever is the new hot thing instead of just letting them be.
