Entertainment purposes implies expressed interest and choice. Microslop gives people no such choice regarding Copilot.

@GossiTheDog If I want entertainment, I won’t be asking Copilot, which has been banished from my computers anyway.. So many better ways to entertain myself!

@Jer @jt_rebelo @GossiTheDog You mean that copilot won't be somehow bringing back the $1 slice to save an imaginary small business and cool inflation?
@fuzzyfuzzyfungus @jt_rebelo @GossiTheDog At the end of that commercial I imagine the guy being unable to pay his rent because the budget that copilot hallucinated for him to bring back the $1 slice doesn't add up and he's been losing .75 on every slice he sells

@GossiTheDog This part makes it sound like a little dictator buddy.

@GossiTheDog Well, well. The ideal "productivity booster" for any business-related activity using a Windows PC, which Microslop has been pushing desperately and obsessively onto every Windows user on the planet, in fact even onto hardware, demanding a new key on keyboards from laptop-manufacturing partners, now turns out to be "for entertainment purposes only." Well, well, well, you don't say...
New Microslop motto to expect next ought to be therefore something like: "Entertainment, the new key to business productivity"

@GossiTheDog so, if my boss tells me to use copilot, can i refuse by pointing out that it's for entertainment purposes only and shouldn't be used for work?
