It's wild just how much they're trying to shove AI down our throats.

I got the notification and I read the fine print. I will have to turn off any future updates from here on out.

And they still haven’t figured out how to stop Netflix from crashing 15 minutes into every other show I watch. First year I had it no problems. Then one day about two years ago, bam, unwatchable.

one of the many prices you pay letting a "Smart" TV connect to the internet.

Don't buy LG, noted. Also, maybe buying a dumb TV with great panel and then adding android fire stick that you can manage the way you want is the way all along?

I got my mom an iPad, apparently AI is unavoidable in setup. To finish setup, you must agree to Apple AI.

They are all doing it together. I can't keep track of who owns what, perhaps "they" are all actually owned by the same megacorp.

This can be turned off after setup.

It's stupid that this is the feature they decide to force considering using an Apple account during setup is still optional.

At some point we'd have to start importing TVs from the other side of the Great Chinese Firewall to avoid unwanted US tech. It's getting ridiculous.

How the fuck would you even use it on your TV?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

You don't use it. It uses you.
