Same with Google Workspace. Just got an email last month saying prices are increasing to reflect “new AI features,” all of which I have disabled because (A) I don’t use them, and (B) they’re another privacy nightmare.
At this point we’re all just subsidizing the shareholders. The vast majority of generative AI being tacked on to subscriptions is useless, it’s just corporations jumping on the hype train to boost their stock price.
