"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.

Microslop's naming scheme has always been completely insane, its like their marketing department is a six year old child. You give them the new word you want to show up often, and instead of thinking of natural ways to implement it, they just fucking shove the word everywhere.
"Copilot" is the word now, so "Microsoft 365 Copilot", a sequence of words that mean absolutely nothing, replaces "Microsoft Office" which is one of the most well known and memorable software names ever.
Xbox
Xbox 360
Xbox One
Xbox Series S/X
The names are so bad you forgot Xbox One X.
X-Box Sequence Co-Pilot Pro
That's cheating, you stopped when it got hard.
Xbox series M
Xbox Series G
Xbox Series 2
Xbox Y
... Or something like that.
Before that wasn't it "365" of everything? What's next, "Office 365 Copilot Windows 11"?
