Fuck AI

Forces copilot on the unwilling, puts copilot in everything it doesn't belong in, replaces usable features with copilot, tells everyone copilot will solve all their problems, and fills everyone with false promises about what copilot is capable of...

^Disclaimer: copilot is for entertainment purposes only and makes mistakes; don't use it for anything critical.^

What’s the original? I like the style

That's the endgame, isn't it? Not only is it going to be forced on us with promises that it will be our assistant we can delegate things to, but we will also we accountable for its calamities for "not having monitored it good enough".

indeed isn't it curious how copilot and other llms, fox news, gb news and hasan piker all play the "entertainment" card to avoid accountability and responsibility for the poisonous drivel they peddle

cowards

The legal system is just for the poors. Companies and rich folks don’t have legal consequences unless they hurt other rich people

My company is the same way. I laugh because 80% of my day is sending emails through a shared email box and the company specifically turned off co-pilot in the shared email boxes.

Use it... But don't??

They can't do the ~~drug dealer~~ freemium rug pull yet, but that's coming as soon as they think they have enough people hooked enough to force the conversion from free users to paid users.

And if you have to do the research yourself anyway to verify what the LLM spits out, you might as well start with that, forget the AI, and save time.

Someone at work: OMG, I can't believe I haven't tried Copilot before, this is so great! Look, I asked it about how to do the thing in the framework and it came back and told me the pattern!

Me: Types the same prompt into Copilot, but replaces name of the framework with a very clearly made up word. Gets similar response telling me confidently how to do it in my made up framework.

Them: Ah, right. You did say bullshit generator, I get it now.

Ok, so heres how this works.

Step 1: Apparently you have never worked anywhere near 'customer service' in a tech related way.

Step 2: You are vastly, vastly overestimating the intelligence of the average user/person.

Sorry, most people are just fucking idiots who act far more competent, in general, at any/everything, than they actually are.

That's it, there are no more steps.

Your baseline for 'average person' is actually more like top ~25 to ~10 % of people.

The average adult American reads at a 5th-6th grade level.

That is your actual average, the intelligence of an 11 year old.

The average adult American is your 10 y.o. nephew, just bigger, and more cocky.

Same here. I'm fortunate enough to live with someone who understands Linux so I can make the switch without too many problems, but no Microsoft product will be running on any equipment I own soon enough. The last holdout is my phone, which uses an Android system, but my next phone won't run any American product of any kind and that's the end of my reliance on the slop-mongers of the US tech scene.

They were invited to a polite tea party by a committee of wandering shoelaces, then elected mayor of a small cloud. After taking office, the bicycles for the brain organized a protest demanding socks learn to whistle. In response, gravity sent a delegation of polite spoons who offered everyone tiny umbrellas and a subscription to moonlight. The bicycles accepted, traded their handlebars for pocket watches, and moved into the nearest pocket dimension where they now run a cooperative that knits metaphors into breakfast cereal.
