I used XSLT once for a tiny site and it felt like magic—templating without JavaScript was freeing. But maybe it’s just niche now, and browser vendors see more cost than payoff.

Curious: have any of you used XSLT in production lately?

Half of them just add autocomplete or “summarize” buttons that don’t actually make things faster — they just make the interface noisier.

It’s starting to feel like every product team is racing to check a marketing box instead of asking if the feature actually helps. I like AI when it feels invisible — when it quietly removes friction instead of trying to impress me.

Anyone else feeling the same fatigue? What’s an example of an AI feature that genuinely improved your workflow — not just added clutter?
