This just screams “stupid new CEO obsessed with trying to implement AI into everything”.
Im so sick of AI being inserted into every inane thing. Next it will be AI lego, AI gaming chair, AI toilet seat. Its just so fucking droll at this point. There is literally no technology I want to use less than your idiot pet AI project you just came up with. Everything now has AI in it yet nothing feels revolutionary or interesting. Its all just worse. Everything is just worse but with AI in it. Its just CEOs piling shit on top of shit on top of shit and expecting something beautiful to come out the other end. Drives me nuts.
I wouldn’t dismiss this just yet. Mozilla has already been doing some open source AI work, specifically their speech offerings. If they invest in these and they get better I think we all stand to gain from having good text to speech and speech recognition available outside of Apple/Amazon/Microsoft/Google
Or “fresh new CEO without baggage who sees where the future of the technology is heading.”
More like “new CEO knows how to chase the latest shiny fad”
Where tech is going, that couldn’t be more absurd. When you’re done bootlicking, that taste takes a while to clear out.
