>Like Googles mandatory AI summary at the top of search results, you know a feature is really good when the vendor feels like the only way they can hit their target metrics is by forcing their users to engage with it.

People like to compare "AI" (here, LLM products) to the iPhone.

I cannot make sense of these analogies; people used to line up around the block on release day for iPhone launches for years after the initial release.

Seems now most people collectively groan when more "innovative" LLM products get stuffed into otherwise working software.

This stuff is the literal opposite of demand.
