I wouldn't be annoyed as much if it wasn't being forced. I do 3d modeling for 3d printing. Fusion 360 recently added an ai assistant. I'd be happy with it but it's forced into a panel to the right of where object properties pops up. So mousing over to properties brings up the AI pop up if you aren't extremely careful.
I'm sure the manager of the AI feature loves that they can show metrics that everyone is bringing up the AI pop up constantly. They don't care that it's pissing everyone off because they get their bonus not on pissing off customers but that their metrics look great.
So instead of being "Wow! This AI helped me fix a problem faster than searching Google." It's, "Freaking AI pop up in my way again!"
And forced is the right word.
They start with an AI button.
When no one uses the AI button they throw a constant notification, telling you the button is there.
Then when you ignore that, they start auto opening it and shit.
Like, just fucking fuck off already AI.
It's slop clippy. Like clippy but 10% of tips are wrong
I'm curious, is it actually building stuff or does it just explain things and answer questions?
It answers questions.
