Rant: Dropped $200 on that 'AI scheduling' tool and it broke my whole workflow

Saw a bunch of people raving about this automated calendar app that uses AI to find the perfect meeting slots. Figured I'd give it a shot since I'm juggling client calls and freelance deadlines. Signed up for the yearly plan at $200. First week it double-booked me three times, then it started suggesting 2am slots for a meeting with a client in New York. I had to manually override everything anyways. Total waste of money and time. Anyone else try one of these and just go back to a shared Google Calendar?

Paid $200 for a glorified spam bot that thinks I want morning meetings at 3am. Guess my calendar's just not sophisticated enough for its genius algorithms. Glad to be back to my boring old Google Calendar where I'm the only one screwing things up.

200 bucks and it can't even tell time, seriously? @paigem45 that algorithm must be running on the same brain cells as the guy who set my thermostat to "party all night" at my last job.
