    AI on phones peaked with MS Contana on W10 mobile circa 2014. “Remind me to jack off when I’m home”. And it fucking did what i wanted. I didn’t even have to say words, i could type it into a text box… it also worked offline.

      As technology advanced, humans grew accustomed to relying on the machines.

        it’s really weird that this turned into a tantrum where you tried to report other users for their jokes???

        Comment removed for being weird (derogatory). I refrained just barely from hitting the “ban from community” button on the slim chance it was a badly misfired joke from a person who can otherwise behave themself, but I won’t object if any other mod goes ahead with the banhammer.

      Bad news for people who use google: they’ve removed the same feature, so their assistant is more useless than Cortana a decade ago (only a mild exaggeration)

      Seriously missed an opportunity to being that back as their agent.

      Legitimately though, Cortana was pretty great. There was a feature to help plan commutes (before I went more or less full remote), all it really did was watch traffic and adjust a suggest time to depart but it was pretty nice.

      Say it every time someone mentions WP7/8/10, those lumia devices were fantastic and I totally miss mine, the 1020 had a fantastic camera on it, especially for the early 2010s
