story of AI batshit crazy Microslop in two pictures they missed browser and mobile devices and now they started force feeding AI slop to everyone thinking that it will be chance of lifetime but guess what? it backfired. i am surprised it is only down 31%. they should go out of business for all these shity and intrusive practices.

The problem is, the uninformed love it. The amount of meeting notes and emails that have been "I asked copilot to..." is scary. I'm the weird and paranoid one for refusing to use it at work, but at least I'm keeping my skills alive.

What will happen to those people when the bubble bursts, MS inevitably removes copyLot and they have to think for themselves again?

[w4tsn@darmstadt.social]

@nixCraft obviously their falling stock price is a market signal that there is still not enough AI slop in their products /s

@nixCraft

We need to get rid of these big tech corporations. They are starting to act against our interests.

[melroy@mastodon.melroy.org]

@xs4me2 @nixCraft starting? You mean they did for years already. Right?

[kyub@social.tchncs.de]

Yes, but there are still a lot of MS junkies out there (especially in businesses) who think they can't do anything if they don't have their windows+msoffice.

@nixCraft Who would have thought, after telling everyone that AI will replace millions of jobs, people aren't having it and #AIslop is trending.

@nixCraft
"Everybody"?

Do you know a single person who is actually still using Microsoft?

[douglasvb@m.ai6yr.org]

@janneke @nixCraft we unfortunately use Microsoft's ecosystem at work. And so does the entire constellation of contractors.

[doragasu@mastodon.sdf.org]

@nixCraft They also have this big problem, they have invested so much on OpenAI, that when it bursts into flames, they might be forced to buy it to try saving what they can. They are not as f*cked as Oracle because of their stupid investment on the tech, but they have big problems.

Maybe someone should stand up and say: No more of this shit.

[richintheflow@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft And not only Microsoft. Over the last 6 months: Oracle -50%, Nvidia, -10%, Palantir -22%, Meta -27%, IBM -15%, snowflake -31% ... and the list goes on

[stonykark@mstdn.ca]

@nixCraft oh no, all the shareholder value

@melroy @xs4me2 @nixCraft Microsoft has been doing this very publicly for at least three decades, longer less publicly.

That is the game of capitalism on which the USA are built upon. The big post WW2 IT techs are the ultimate culmination of it. Neoliberal capitalism where winner takes all... and the rest has nothing... like Standard Oil and its monopoly they should be stopped as we see how it does not end well...

The new generation of Silicon Valley actors are much more toxic than Microsoft btw...

@DodoTheDev @nixCraft

What makes you assumed that they were thinking in the first place ?

I have a lot of coworker that are very good at negotiation, or rewriting or following process, but they cannot think outside their little box.

I cant count the number of time where i got "this value here is wrong, it must be a multiple of that value" and they cannot explain to me what those values mean neither to explain how i'm supposed to compute them.

Of course they are right. But do they think ?

[orange_lux@eldritch.cafe]

@richintheflow @nixCraft Good. Let them drown.
