  1. [R3] TypeAI 3/5 · US “Reply” feature leaves much to be desired: I got this mainly for the auto reply feature. You need to copy the incoming message to your clipboard, which is ok but annoying. My main complaint is that there is a refresh button to regenerate the reply, but it isn’t creative enough with the replies. For example, in response to “ask me an interesting question”, it kept generating the same 2-3 replies no
  2. [R15] TypeAI 1/5 · US AI...no. No i dont believe it...: this is your Homie here and I am wondering why this is called AI if they can't do a lot of the functions as the rest of the AI bought and I'm just curious what the intentions were of the person who made this AI suppose AI. It doesn't deserve one star in my book.
