The amount of advertising being poured into the most naff uses for "AI" suggests to me that none of the big boys have much of an idea as to what people might want to do with their water-chugging remix machines.

    They don’t actually care. The make it and slap a subscription value on it model has worked over and over in the past.

    I’d like to think people don't have a use but people keep paying for useless digital crap so I can see why they took a gamble.

    I have had a few chats with people who are willing to pay and my observations is the reason boils down to I think it will give my brain an advantage or a boredom obsession such as my need to aggravate golf ratings is super important to me. The ones I have seen who are willing to pay are lemmings.
