Copilot AI ‘Microslop’ Chat Ban Is Not Censorship—Says ~~Microsoft~~ Microslop

So they won’t mind if we start calling it “NoPilot” then?

[–] user28282912@piefed.social 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I also like FauxPilot.

faux - adj - artificial or imitation; fake.

Not to* be confused with the OSS alternative, also named fauxpilot.

Censorship is not censorship -- says Microslop.

They’re within their rights and it’s definitely not something they want to have take off, whether it’s accurate or not.

But apparently their brand management doesn’t know who Barbara Streisand is.

No, that's MechaStriesand.

It’s "brand management"

Microsoft will have plenty more missteps as they continue to fall from relevance.

Microslop's Slopya Nadella is getting butt hurt

[–] Reisen@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

they are right. it's their discord and so they make the rules. it's not censorship.

but it is very much letting us know that it got under their skin. and so i will keep using that name everywhere i can

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It's still censorship. Self imposed censorship is still censorship.

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Cry harder, Microslop

[–] percent@infosec.pub 4 points 1 month ago

Maybe they'd prefer "Macroslop"?

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

That's just going to cause people to invent an even more insulting word.
