I needed to do a word count on a PDF the other day (my work is so exciting).
It opened in Adobe Acrobat, and its AI thing popped up, wanting to help.
I had planned to copy paste the text into a 'word count' website, but this AI was asking what I needed, so I asked.
646 Words, it told me.
Fam, there were 512 words in that document. It wasn't even *close*.
How did we break computers so badly that they can't even count anymore 😢
