Selling machine learning stuff as "intelligence" raises false expectations and is ultimately fraud. I can't wait for this whole overblown hype to crash and burn.

It's just their new brand name. I get the impression they are bringing genAI to boomers in a user friendly way. While everyone of us on HN have used chatGPT and knows the pros/cons, the regular users need a more gentle introduction using the basic use cases such as proofreading and simple image editing.

I was underwhelmed reading the link about the upcoming Intelligence features, but I put myself into the shoes of my dad and thought... well I guess that's a good starting point.
