"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I think this is dumber than renaming twitter to X.
Renaming twitter to x - at least it was a straight rename.
Office to Copilot? They already had a product named copilot, so now what is the old copilot? Microsoft 365 Copilot Copilot? I just want to use Microsoft 365 Copilot Excel without Microsoft 365 Copilot (formerly Microsoft 365, formerly Microsoft Office) Copilot
Imagine trying to explain what "Copilot" is to your 70 year old grandmother
Had Microsoft been good at naming things? Remember there was one Xbox One X box in your closet?
Get ready for Xbox Two CoPilot
it's the one where the console plays itself so you can get back to fixing errors in the excel file you had opened from earlier which copilot decided to edit for some reason.
But not as dumb as renaming Remote Desktop to "Windows App".
