So they failed in yet another core software development tenet, the 90% problem. If an app doesn't cover 90% of typical use, adoption will typically fall flat.

So a bunch of rich assholes wanted to replace their workers, but didn't do any background research at all about anything any of their employees do

You're conflating benchmarks with the product

We are ruled by morons. They probably assumed their employees did nothing except draw a wage.

Capitalism naturally rewards bullies, bullies are dumb on average. This is how we got here.

They tend to think they're rich because they deserve it. Therefore, their employees are not deserving - i.e. competent - as them. And they don't do much.

(NVM that in my experience in the IT/infosec world, they can't work a DVD player. I don't know how many board rooms I've been sent to to press a button or plug in a cable)

It's a tool. It does what it does. When they invented pencil sharpeners it didn't help people who use pens.
