I'd guess the codebase that keeps Word running is so convoluted by now they have trouble shoehorning it in.

Ok, what film is this from?

Sounds really good, will have to give this a try

So I was trying to think how I'd implement it, and I agree if it's simple then it really only needs to set the brightness level once, then remember if the user adjusts it, and reuse that adjustment for every lux reading.

Hence the example I gave:

Take the ambient light level (lux).
Set brightness to 5.
Log that the user has made it 1 level or 10% darker.
Next time it senses the same lux level, set the brightness 1 level lower

Well shucks, I guess Samsung lied to me! I see adaptive brightness was released as part of Android Pie in 2018.

Yeah, I was thinking it could be machine learning in that it takes the average of all your changes over time and the different ambient light levels.

But deffo no need for neural networks.

I totally agree with you.

However there is one smart feature Samsung has that I like. The screen brightness auto adjusts based on the ambient light, but if I change that automatic brightness (I prefer the screen darker) it will remember that and consistently adjust the brightness.

I'm not sure it's really an AI feature..

Take the ambient light level (lux).
Set brightness to 5.
Log that the user has made it 1 level or 10% darker.
Next time it senses the same lux level, set the brightness 1 level lower

The UI on the app is really disingenuous, it looks like there is no option to change until you click on the individual descriptions.

It's US English I think ..

The other one that I notice is "write your representative", instead of "write to your representative"

I think it's generic and not genetic 🧬

I didn't notice until you mentioned it!

So the top one in a house I don't recognise, and the bottom one on a web ... a black widow or red something ... As you maybe able to tell, I'm not really a spider fan!

 

The Fen Raft Spider is roughly the size of an adult male’s hand, and can spin webs as big as pizzas (25cm).

They are also semi-aquatic and can run across the water’s surface to capture their prey.

"D'ya make her?" Sounds like Jamaica.

As in "did you make her go?"
