You do realize just how non-existent AI actually is in your everyday life, right?

The page users reach to submit support requests asks for it politely, our auto-responder reminds them of the same, yet people keep asking questions that we could immediately answer if we only had included a log. So it just creates some additional back-and-forth email exchanges.

They still have the bloody annoying "put the most-used (whatever) at the top" cr@p enabled by default, so that every time you go for something in a menu, it's in a different position.

Or have a dialog that comes up and says "I can see that you have {done these steps in this order} for {this situation}. Would you like for me to make that the default activity for {this situation}?" Give the user some interaction to take the repetitiveness way. A tool works best when it lets the user choose when to take shortcuts.

I wonder when they start using AI to ?help? us in our everyday chores will they include common sense or will it be like real life? :)

Brought the Babbage quote rushing to mind:
Charles Babbage:
On two occasions I have been asked, – "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" ... I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question!

As in, the number of mouse clicks that I have to do every day, the same mouse clicks, over and over, because there's no "AI" that says "oh look, Marc just launched us, and he always does this..." So, in Postman, just one example - Click on Import, Click on Raw Text, Click the edit box, Copy what's in my paste buffer, Click on Import, click on Send. Seriously. WTF. Where is AI???? Or Outlook, where it doesn't auto-focus to the ONE AND ONLY textbox in some mindless dialog? Sure, it's great that we have self-driving cars. What I really want is AI for my repetitive work life TO TAKE THE REPETITION OUT OF IT!!! And you wonder why I roll my own. Code that is.

Abusing Extension Methods, Null Continuation, and Null Coalescence OperatorsThe fundamental problem in the old James P. Hogan novel "The two faces of tomorrow" is exactly the question of "What if an artificial intelligencence is a little more logical than we appreciate?" The novel is "ages old" (1979), but you'd never guess that if you read it without checking its year of publication. I'd dare to give it my my strong recommendation - after 41 years, it still holds up!

That would annoy the Hell out of me. I'm Mark with a "k"; it's Marc with a "c" who wants Clippy back -- we have that on good authority*. * It was on the Internet[^].

Abusing Extension Methods, Null Continuation, and Null Coalescence OperatorsScientists involved in this area of research (since 1950s) never claimed that AI has been achieved. The literature on AI explicitly mentions that AI does not exist, yet. Unfortunately, companies trying to lure (ignorant?) clients using words such as AI, smart, Machine learning, etc. In reality, nothing of these is happening. Even worse, the general public due to the lack of the specific knowledge, the miss-use and ab-use of the language, believes that the new products (whatever they are i.e. television, telephones, mobile, etc) have indeed "some kind of AI". This fact influences research areas on engineering and people acquire funds for research on AI when the outcome has nothing to do with AI (for example image processing); and creating problems to those scientists that are really trying to do research on AI. People read in news that a new product with AI exists and get excited, which this feeds more the companies to promote this idea as being something that is already happening in order to sell their new product that just happens to have "AI". Yes, I would agree with you that AI does not exist. Maybe in the far future but definitely not now.

Abusing Extension Methods, Null Continuation, and Null Coalescence OperatorsSome of the functionality holes where I have rolled my own. Thank goodness for the Windows SendTo folder! It helps with lots of these issues. Add in a touch of batch, powershell, or C# Console to manage the simple glue. Windows Explorer - You think by Windows 10 that Windows Explorer would know how to store a decent plain text format onto the clipboard! 1. copy the full path of the selected file to the clipboard 2. select a bunch of random files and make them into a list (pop up text file or clipboard) 3. create a listing of the entire folder onto the clipboard. text file processing 1. Eliminate consecutive duplicates 2. Sort and Eliminate duplicates 3. split groups of lines based on a fixed number There is a good article on CP on clipboard utilities that handle some of these cases.

Exactly. When I open up a bug ticket it JIRA why can't it automatically add "Could you add reproduction steps?" to the comments and re-assign it back to the person that opened it?
