    It’s just revealing that we never actually needed a clippy in the first place. An “assistant” in tech isn’t actually as useful as people assumed it would be.

      That’s what I figured. Everything the assisstant does for you will be done faster with the right know how and experience

        Nah, I’d love to be able to ask an assistant to make sense of the dog shit layout in word, instead of having to blindly click at menus for 10 minutes, then finally give up and Google for 10 more minutes, all because Microsoft thought it would be cool and intuitive to split menus into “view”, “review”, “layout” and “design”, because those words don’t basically all mean the same thing.

          That’s why I said if you have the know how and experience. Asking the assisstant to do something for you will probably take londer than doing it yourself

          What you’re talking about is more like Q&A imo, which is just kind of an inbuild google or manual
