I swear to god companies are doing this shit deliberately.

Wonder how artificially-inflated the "people clicked on the AI tool! AI good!" metric is because of this design decision.

@DeltaWye @ret It is 100% on purpose. Taking advantage of either poor reflexes or UI memory to force you into making the mistake of clicking the button or link they want you to click.

I have to stay on my guard anytime I order from Amazon because of how regularly they tweak the positions of the big yellow "Order with Prime!" button and teeny tiny "Not this time" link, the latter of which I always click.

The cognitive labor is exhausting.
