Me too. I bounce off of any product landing page that has "AI" slapped on it, which lately is ~99% of them.

On the other hand, if I saw a product labelled "No AI bullshit" then I'd immediately be more interested.

But that's just me, the AI buzz among non-techies is enormous and net-positive.

The AI buzz among non-techies inflates the bubble.

lol, marketing knows no bounds.

Almost like its all emotional-level gimmicks anyways.

If I see "No AI bullshit" I'd be as skeptical if it said "AI Inside". Corpos tryina squeeze a buck will resort to any and all manipulative tactics.

For me use or mention of AI is a signal the manufacturer either doesn't care about quality or doesn't know or care that it's no longer special. It's plastic.

When a random ass product has "AI!!1!" slapped all over it it's a clear sign that the business suits and sales fuckheads who don't know anything about anything are running the show.

Which, granted, describes most companies. But ultimately they do not serve you or your technical needs, because they are literally incapable of understanding them. Any intersection between your technical needs and their provisions is of pure coincidence.
