"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.

They genuinely did rebrand office "The Copilot app" I shit you not. Check it out https://www.office.com/
WTF!?!?
it's a sneaky move to make it seem like Copilot is generating revenue.
Otherwise why torpedo one of your biggest and most recognized products with a name change like this? Stupid either way, and the result of executive circle jerking.
Is Elon Musk on Microslop's board or something?
The one that baffles me is renaming Remote Desktop to "Windows App." There was a time in American history when doing something that stupid was punished by having a trocar hammered through your tear duct at the Brain Stirring Clinic.
