Look at the real statistics. Everyone is using Chrome. Even among developers.

This for me is probably the only thing I’ll find useful from it. I’d like to know at a quick glance what the long email is about (but that’s what the subject line is for?), and if there was anything specific that I’m going to need to take action on later.

But the idea of AI “cleaning up” my writing is dreadful.

When I lived in the UK what I felt among friends is that the BBC had a perceived bias towards the Conservative Party, although this may simply be a bias towards the government regardless of who in power. It’s been the Tories for the past decade before Starmer.

Unfortunately a shockingly large number of people don’t get this… including my old boss who was running an AI-based startup 💀
