Bugfixes won't make shareholders happy while shoving AI down our throats will.

In what way is "AI being shoved down you throat"? Did you think that SwiftUI was shoved down your throat? Did you think that CoreData was shoved down your throat. Perhaps develop a more nuanced critique.

    Ask Microsoft, they have much more experience with that.

    > Did you think that SwiftUI was shoved down your throat?

    On a scale of 1 to 10, it has been shoved down our throats at level 1 or maybe 2. Thankfully it's optional.

    > Did you think that CoreData was shoved down your throat

    No.

    I believe most people who used Xcode perfectly know what I'm talking about.

  • > In what way is "AI being shoved down you throat"?

    This is a very strange question. It more correct to ask "In what way is AI NOT being shoved down your throat".

    Yes

    > Did you think that CoreData was shoved down your throat.

    No

  • Copilot being added to the Xbox app on iOS is the latest ridiculous example I've seen of AI being shoved down everyone's throat.

    • it really is getting ridiculous; atlassian has this other totally useless ai called rovo that invents events/meetings and notes when it tries to summarize a tree of documents and offers random useless "suggestions" for jira docs...
