In practice that looks like this: https://youtube.com/shorts/pjT0ubmENWk

It sure looks creepy when your browser suddenly starts doing all kinds of stuff.

No percent truth was in that video

He did say it makes screenshots of everything and sends it to a cloud AI for processing. I believe that. It's also a good reason for not wanting it.

But nobody that has a functioning product has to fake their demo. This is extremely disturbing behavior when it comes to AI hype influencers

In reality, it's going to screw so much stuff up and do so many things you don't want it to do, that you're going end up spending a lot of time just correcting all the mistakes it makes.

And when you're not fighting to stop it from doing more things you don't want it to do, you're going spend your time worrying about what it will do next that you're going have to fix.

And unless you pay for the most expensive phone and the most expensive tier of service, they'll probably dumb it down on purpose and your life is going be hard.

Mistake prevention is far better than mistake correction.

I'll be disabling that shit as soon as I install.
