That's so wild I had to go and look up what that could possibly mean. What a world we live in. https://www.logitech.com/en-us/software/logi-ai-prompt-build...

I didn’t even check what it could be. I just got the rainbow cursor suddenly on boot, and the process name was enough to instantly uninstall the driver and search for a replacement.

What is a rainbow cursor?

Do you mean the mac beach ball, or is it a misguided feature of the mouse?

Beach ball, yes. I've started to call it rainbow cursor 30 years ago on air gapped Macs, and still reluctant to absorb any other names.
