Well I have mixed feelings about it.

For general searches, I agree. I want those to be highly deterministic. But in that case I need to know exactly what I'm looking for.

There's also the other kind of thing though. "Who was that guy that I emailed with a year or two ago about this issue with MacBook Enrolment?". Yes I can filter by company or other details if I remember those things but sometimes I don't. And that's when AI search can really shine. Or not, it can also totally make up stuff out of its ass. But at least when it comes to emails that's easily verifiable.




I can see the usefulness.

But I'm already sick and tired of search not returning stuff I know is in there, because I forgot to check the blessed combination of boxes.
