We're still in a place where when computers try to be "helpful" (using #AI, predictive #algorithms, recommendation algorithms etc.) are too close to #Clippy territory instead of being genuinely helpful.
So I'd rather have them not try to do that. I know what I'm doing and would prefer to not having to constantly undo the "help".

@tetrislife @timokissel I run stuff like Word and Excel and it doesn’t run on HaikuOS (or does it?)
