If you recall, this survey showed participants multiple sets of 3 random browser features, then had participants pick whether...
Funny how people were interpreting the survey itself as a way to pretend that everybody wanted AI even when they didn’t - yet somehow it was possible that it didn’t end up in the top 10 😅
(Also understandably, this won’t be 1:1 the roadmap, for the caveats they mentioned in the post. Still helpful!)
Agreed, the survey was pretty decent. My biggest complaint, however, was that there wasn’t an option for “don’t want,” only “want least.” Sometimes I got three options that I actually do want, and sometimes I got two that I definitely don’t want, and I think it would be useful to communicate that.

Amazing, it’s almost as if most of us aren’t techdudebros with our heads up our own asses :)
Who’d have thought!
