I'll be honest with you: I'm not a fan of AI. I don't agree with a lot of it for many, many reasons, and, personally, I don't find any use for it in my day-to-day life. I get by just fine without it. As someone who reviews consumer tech for a living, I've noticed a recent trend amongst manufacturers: they love slapping the word "AI" on their products, even when nothing about the product is actually powered by AI. It's a buzzword after all, right, because why would a hair styler need AI?
I'm tired of it, and I know many of my friends and the general public are too. Needless to say, I'm highly skeptical of AI, so when I found out that the gaming monitor I was testing had an "AI Care Sensor," I couldn't help but roll my eyes. But I'm not opposed to being proven wrong. The MSI MPG 341CQR QD-OLED X36 has (almost) convinced me that AI can actually be useful.
