Showing Original Post only (View all)Technology is fucking everything up. [View all]
Google search? The first results are AI generated, and they likely contain bad information.
I'm sure there is a way to hide AI results in the search, but I have not bothered to look into that yet because this shit is so fucking exhausting. I just use a browser other than Google chrome in an attempt to escape AI.
Looking for a factual video without an AI generated voice? It's hit and miss for me. Everything I click on is an obnoxious AI generated voice.
Oh, and while I'm ranting, get your face out of your fucking phone when I'm talking face to face with you.
And my phone...Google Gemini? What the fuck is this?
Google, maybe you should cater more to people who don't give a fuck about new technology, people who are not addicted to their phones 24/7, people who still have some warmth and humanity left in them.
I want old dirty phone booths with phones that have a dial that you have to stick your finger in and turn, while some guy is standing outside of the phone booth, tapping his watch while saying "You almost done? I need to make a call".
I'm looking into buying a new car. Why can't I buy a standard shift in my vehicle of choice? Why must I have to get a masters degree to learn how to work the fucking car? I want a car with a clutch, and a key that you stick into a hole and turn to start the car. Fuck your touch screens. I don't want Apple this, or Android that IN MY CAR. I want to live and die by my own hand. I don't want lane departure, or blind spot warnings...I know how to drive, and I trust myself.
And to car dealerships...why don't you maintain your websites? Why am I getting a pop-up from "Brittany", telling me she is online and asking me if I need any help when looking for a new car? And then I close the pop-up and she pops up again with that obnoxious "pop" sound? Who the fuck is Brittany?
Sorry, I'm in a mood.
Get off my fucking lawn.
*screams at the clouds*
Jesus, I re-read this before I posted it and I sound like a dinosaur.
OK, boomer.
