It's like how Microsoft announced they were going to use advanced AI to predict when would be a good time to reboot people's PCs for updates instead of, you know, just fucking letting them pick.

Or the myriad of ways I struggle with my Apple products that are almost universally black boxes in which stuff goes and functionality comes out, without any way to change or debug behaviors.

Apple seems to get it right pretty consistently, which is why I keep their stuff. But when it does manage to go wrong, holy shit debugging it is an absolute nightmare.
