Major problem with the gadget is the same as all AI. You can tell it to perform tasks as long as the task doesn't have any specific requirements to how you want it done and if you inevitably do have requirements its faster to do it yourself.

The main problem with the gadget is that it just doesn't work very well.

It works as well as any other AI product. The reason this works particularly bad is because it fully relies on the AI to function.

There are a lot of AI products that work very well. Only people usually stop calling it AI once it works.

The AI that this product contains is especially bad. It's slow, often just doesn't work, and cannot do simple things like speech recognition at all reliably
