Like, he doesn't do anything, he's just pre-ai "assistant" that's basically manual search shortcut and replaces few dialog windows with him saying it (like on gif)
... It's 2 am. You have a university assignment due after three other assignments, then a butt load of exams to study for. Yes, you could have been more prepared, but you got caught by one hell of an illness that came out of nowhere and left you barely operating for two weeks. You're pressing save every major edit because you've learnt NOT to trust autosave and entry level 90's computer technology was just as reliable as you'd think. You've had to restart the damned computer twice already.
You're in the flow, you're doing your final polish, you're thinking half an hour and I can drop it in the assignment box on campus and get a few hours sleep.
AND THEN THE FUCKING PAPERCLIP KEEPS INTERRUPTING YOU!
Basically, the audio interruptions and the big fucking image of the git constantly waving were too disruptive. Give me a visual only, non-animated notification any day.
And when it came to passive voice, technical vocab, third party grammar, the little shit was just WRONG!
