      My WebEx client (a program for making phone calls and text messages) added a damned AI button last week.

      Why!?

        Why? Because they can and some c suite said to do it because buzzwords.

        Turns out, it is actually kinda useful for summarizing conversations and bringing you up to speed.

          I guess that that second part makes sense.

          It’s the buzzword part that irks me. All I want is a video card under $500 that actually works…

          I’m hoping that AMD gets some progress in the graphics space and the AI space. And as much as it pains me… Intel too.

            Intel, AMD, almost anyone else. Nvidia can keep making AI calculation cards while the rest of us get perfectly serviceable graphics cards at affordable consumer prices .
