Microsoft doesn't think you want that. actually, Microsoft, and all these other AI pushing fuckfaces know for a fact that you don't want this. that's why they're using dark design to trick you into using it so they can tell their fucking idiot investors that the metrics show interest in the 'technology'.

we're at a stage in capitalism where what you want is irrelevant. what they can push to you is more important. they're way past offering you things for your money. they don't want your money. they want your data, so much bigger entities can give them unimaginable amounts of money.

"We know what we want you to want, and that means you want it"

Followed by

"Why are our only users people too unskilled or lazy to find alternatives?"

Come to Linux. Please.

That response is so apt. Its not even really about AI its just that happens to be the latest tool with which to milk more out of me while offering less.

This week some online hosting thing, that I pay for, emailed me to say I need to provide photo od and a selfie. When I created a support ticket to ask why, I received a generated slop response that didnt answer my question. Ive started the long laborious process to switch to another provider of course.

A while back my GP asked me if they could use an AI thing to listen to our conversation. I said that its not my preference but im not going to outright refuse. He seemed surprised and asked why, so I explained that it wasnt for my benefit and that I wanted to be listened to by a human who knew me. He disabled it that time but now they just use it and dont ask anymore.

Today I called them and they have a new gen AI voice receptionist. You can ask to speak to a human but, for fuck sake.

I am going to find another drs clinic just on principle but fuck me im just sick of it.

Every day, every way, shittier service, more inhumane, less human.

Ban advertising and watch the surveilance shrivel.

Nah, MS just pretends that they think we want that, so that people who are lower on the wokeness ladder just get upset about corporate "incompetence" rather than the reality of corporate malevolence

A quick snappy ui would be nice. You know, like 15 years ago?

Capitalism with a brand new turbo charged surveillance state incorporated into all the devices we own.

Richard Stallman was right. From the very first moment.

My brother in christ, it is you who bought the capitalism OS.

Lol the only thing Microsoft thinks about is how it can make it's applications use even more system resources so it can force people continue with their infinite upgrade cycle. Users "wants" are not a thing.

Ms: ok, ok we hear you we gotta work on this somewhat.
