That's also how I feel about "smart" devices in general. I don't want a smart refrigerator, I just want it to work. The same goes for other appliances, like my laundry machine, dishwasher, and rice cooker. The one area I kind of want it, TVs, has been ruined by stupid tracking and ads.
What's going to kill AI isn't AI itself, it's AI being forced into products where it doesn't make sense, and then ads being thrown in on top to try to make some sort of profit from it.
