Comment on Notepad gets AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite, using local and cloud models.
Passerby6497@lemmy.world 2 days agoSo AI isn’t useful in the slightest?
How is putting AI in a basic text editor useful? Or is this a situation where you are just defending the concept of the usefulness of shoving bots in every single piece of software possible?
AI has some useful things it can do, but many more useless things, like just being shoved into something to try to mine even more of your data under the guide of ‘usefulness’.
You know you don’t have to use AI in it, right?
No, I just have to see the prompt every time I use the software just so lazy mouth breathers don’t have to expend the mental energy to go to another app to ask their mental pacifier to do all the hard work for them.

Because writing/editing text is the most basic use of LLMs. Pretty self explanatory.
This doesn’t mine your data. Where are you guys all getting that from? The screenshot even explicitly shows it’s on-device.

Microsoft mines your data while in Windows, why do you think this will be different.
And your device data mines you. Are you really this naive?

You made the claim that it does mine your data, so the onus is on you to provide a source :)
Let me ask you this: do you seriously believe that Microsoft send everything you type back to their servers? Like do you honestly believe that?

Do you regularly throw out strawman hypotheticals that are only tangentially related? Because the main thing I believe right now is that you’re not really worth conversing with.
I never said or implied they did send everything that you type back, and it tells me that you either don’t understand what we’re talking about (data mining) or you’re not participating in good faith. I let earlier ones slide, but I’m done with you.
Good day.
