New Google Docs: "Help Me Write"....What IS this garbage?

[GammaGlobulin]

Dear Folks,

 

Can anyone explain how to use this NEW Google Docs?

 

 

I do not understand it.

 

Why is Google Docs making it more, and more, difficult for me to be able to write what I want to write?

 

Why does Google want to WRITE FOR ME, instead of letting my Freak Flag Fly?

 

Someday, soon, will Google Docs become unusable for those who wish to write what they want to write?

 

Will we forget how to write if computers write for us....in time?

 

What is the REAL "plan" behind this new Google Strategy to make humans dumber?

 

Is Google softening us up, and dumbing us down...in advance of.....the Final Countdown to turning the brains of us humans into....

 

PABLUM?

 

Worried and regards,

Gamma

 

Note:  For sure, I am worried.  Now, whenever I open a Google Gmail....There is always this THING interfering with my cursor, stating that it wishes to POLISH my writing....but WHY?

 

 

"Help me write Alt + H"

 

This is a CONSPIRACY designed to turn our minds to MUSH, obviously.

 

If you have not yet noticed this, then have you been hiding under a rock?

 

Pls advs....

Remember the spreadsheet "As-Easy-As" from the 1980s, a clone of "Lotus 123" it was as easy as 123? 🙂 

 

I too think these "assistants" are more than annoying,

"Clippy" that bloody paperclip in MS Word went by the board some time back because he was intrusive and annoying!

Can you turn that junk off?  Even the autocorrect spelling thing is a pain in the neck, sometimes.  

 

Anyway, when I write something, I don't need an AI assistant telling me how to improve.  It just complicates matters.

Gemini says you can.

But, is Gemini hallucinating?

 

 

And the REAL problem is that....

 

ALL of this GARBAGE should be....

 

OPT IN, and not OPT OUT.

 

How many Man-Hours is being wasted, around the world, just trying to rid Gmail and Google Docs of the newest GARBAGE that they dream up?

 

This torture never ends.

 

 

Some geeks, obviously, are complete IDIOTS....

or even Google anything!

Why don't you let it run? 

 

It might have some good ideas that we would rather read!
