A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yes, and no. It's not all fake, there's stuff going on, it's just not what they're selling it to be, and highly pushed into places it needs to stay away from, for safety and for inability. My takeaway on him being surprised as how people aren't impressed isn't the LLM factor of what it can do (well or not), it's that HE isn't aware that other LLMs are doing better than Microsoft's version. He really is deep if he doesn't know what the competition has. That's why there's a lackluster interest (as well as burnout of AI "solutions" for every damn thing, often worse than just doing it like before).
My coworkers use Co-Pilot. When they have downtime, just for amusement, just to see how badly it mangles things it ought to be good at doing. Never mind the fringes where an LLM isn't suited at all.
