Why does AI make simple tasks so complicated?

I asked AI for help with something simple yesterday, and somehow it turned into a long explanation with multiple steps and an entire strategy. Like bro, I just needed a quick answer, not a full tutorial Does anyone else experience this, or is it just me?
Do you prefer AI that keeps things short and simple or one that explains everything in detail?

Would Instagram be more interesting if people posted more “bad” photos?

Not ugly on purpose.

Just normal photos.

Poor lighting, weird angles, blurry moments the kind of pictures that actually exist in most people's galleries.

Have you ever discovered someone through their comments and ended up following them?

Sometimes a genuinely funny, useful, or interesting comment tells you more about a person than their actual profile.

I think Instagram profiles are becoming harder to understand at a glance

Someone might be a photographer, entrepreneur, fitness enthusiast, podcast host, traveler, creator, and founder—all in one bio.

People have multiple interests, so it makes sense. But from a new visitor's perspective, too much information can make it difficult to understand what an account is actually about.

There's a balance between showing personality and giving people a clear reason to stick around.

Do you actually read captions or mostly look at the post?

I used to skip captions almost every time

Now I find myself reading them when the creator actually has something interesting to say

Wonder how many people still pay attention to them
