@GossiTheDog Legislation also gives a focus on what product features to make next.

These AI vendors haven't created anything new for ages - only a slightly better model each time. They've quickly fallen into the iPhone "merry go round" of bland updates masked as "groundbreaking evolutions"

Let's be honest, Microsoft hasn't really changed Word since before 1997. The only reason Microsoft can keep selling it to you is because it's now packaged up in an E7 licence with a whole bunch of hybrid AD, security and other DLP controls that MS begrudgingly made because companies needed them for compliance reasons.

Now the AI companies want these types of "new features" to sell.
