This is the most pointlessly aggressive article I have ever read. Did Juan attempt to make a chatbot but found it was difficult and had to vent?

He has a good point at the end though, that there are in fact useful applications of this idea which are specifically not centered around making the lives of the rich and busy a few seconds more convenient.

I'm sorry. I really didn't want to come across as aggressive. My intention was just to deliver a thought about trying to create more meaningful products. Again, I'm sorry if you felt the tone was rude. I adjusted it a little bit. Also I would def have this in mind for future writes. Thanks for the comment and the feedback.
