I will give respect where due: I like the sweep button. It's handy for me personally, as someone who is on several email lists that are public-facing. That's about it.
Every attempt to help me automatically is a pain. Like most things in this vein it never learns what you're trying to do, only what they would do in a given scenario that's vaguely like ours.
I think there's tons of things I love for it to do for me automatically - there's all sorts of quality of life features that I only notice when they change it, usually without bothering to tell me. And now, my muscle memory is leading to unexpected behavior, and it'll take me weeks to learn to stop doing that, and a few more months of training to learn the new muscle memory as I relapse at all the worst times
Some of it is straight up better, some of it is great new capabilities, but in the last few years? All that comes to mind is I thought it was pretty cool they added auto responses, even if I never actually use them. Doesn't change existing behavior, just adds a new option that's not in the way
But then the auto complete - I hate it so much. And I love auto complete - except it's the fucking opposite behavior of every IDE out there, including Microsoft's! I can't even unlearn it, because it's a core part of my workflow!
So now, I constantly have to delete things I never wanted to say, and I delete the things I thought sounded good.
I like new features and the computer doing things for me automagically... But I'd rather them to just stop at this point
