  • Billbobbird William Bird (@Billbobbird) reported

    Yep. @WhatsApp should consider denying @webafrica the right to use their business service as it must be about the worst implementation of an ai system. You will get better Ai from a paper napkin and faster response by tying a small note to snail and hoping it’s finds webafrica

    Why oh why isn’t @WhatsApp available on the iPad. Having written a few iOS apps I can tell you it’s as easy as a setting in the compiler to make a program run on phone and tablet. You can’t even use the bloody web version on the iPad. First world issue
