    Lack of familiarity with AI PCs leads to what the study describes as “misconceptions,” which include the following: 44 percent of respondents believe AI PCs are a gimmick or futuristic; 53 percent believe AI PCs are only for creative or technical professionals; 86 percent are concerned about the privacy and security of their data when using an AI PC; and 17 percent believe AI PCs are not secure or regulated.

    ah yeah, you just need to get more familiar with your AI PC so you stop caring what a massive privacy and security risk both Recall and Copilot are

    lol @ 44% of the study’s participants already knowing this shit’s a desperate gimmick though

    Remember when normies couldn’t even find what they wanted via normal web searches?

    This seems like that.

        People who struggle to find basic things via web searches. That is, before the somewhat recent ratcheted up enshitification.

        Generally, people who don’t know how to work with the systems. As it relates to newer LLM search tools, not knowing how to prompt it correctly to get the desired output, knowing the limitations of LLMs to prevent you from doing something stupid, and knowing to check the sources that most of these LLMs provide before fully trusting the info it provides.

        Normies are the ones microwaving their phones after 4chan encouraged them to which happened way before LLMs were spitting out sometimes bad info. Those are the same people who are going to eat glue or whatever the LLM says because it read too much Reddit.

            I’ve got nothing against people not using LLM search if they don’t find value in it.

            That just doesn’t describe me or my experience with it.

            To be clear, the vast majority of my searches don’t involve LLM results at all. But I’m glad to have it on the edge cases where I find it useful.
