I don’t think anyone asked for this AI in any and all consumer products.

If the backlash against AI-in-everything is strong enough maybe the new electric truck that Bezos is selling will actually do well. It doesn’t have an infotainment system at all, and even has hand-cranked windows! My family has an old base-model Corolla with those but it’s not uncommon for us to have younger passengers who had literally never seen them before.
Maybe analog tech is due for a comeback. A lot of car companies have recently started putting physical knobs and buttons back into their cars in response to the backlash against the stupid and dangerous all-touchscreen-interfaces.

If AI is here to replace people, then i would think that the logical conclusion is that eventually the self driving cars will only pick up robots that need to go to their factory jobs

I can kinda get behind AI being used by absolutely horrible people to make their own situations much, much worse.

Surprising? How the heck is that surprising. I would’ve called it obvious.

I think both the article and the commenters are focusing on the wrong thing. Customer’s confidence in Intel is an all-time low so paying intel prices for intel processors, when you have a perfectly good AMD processor with the same performance at 30% of the price (Ryzen is also blatantly promoting AI capabilities in their new processors) is what is stopping people from buying Intel.
Old generations are selling well because they are selling them at clearance prices, specially on laptops.
There is quite interest on AI processors because this will enable to run models locally (so in theory, without the privacy concerns of running these models on remote servers) plus the “AI coprocessors” also are good for accelerating other tasks (a bit like when they branded the new math extensions “Multimedia Extensions”)

The BBC has created an electric zombie Agatha Christie in order to sell writing classes. This is stomach-churningly awful, and the sooner this stupid, useless, frankly evil bubble bursts, the better. Disgusting.
