Because people like me genuinely don’t want this crap?
Like never? Even as it gets better?
For me, that depends on a whole lot of things. Who owns it? Who pays for its operation? How much and what access does it need? What verifiable privacy protections are there? How transparent are its processes?
I’m just generally suspicious of companies whose products are ultimately meant to be integral to our daily lives. These kinds of tools will undoubtedly need access to a huge chunk of our personal and professional data to work effectively. I’d rather not interact with the world through the lens of someone’s corporate vision. With the right protections? Sure, I could see some cool and creative use cases. But that unfortunately brings me back to my general skepticism.
