"How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'?

[rich@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@graste I don't see a problem here. Or here. Or over there, or -

[metaphil@chaos.social]

@graste @babble_endanger Copilot for Encarta '97

[metaphil@chaos.social]

@graste I asked Copilot and it said that the chart is missing Copilot for Microsoft Copilot

[mls14@social.vivaldi.net]

@graste They have flipped the popular bumper sticker.

“Copilot is my God.”

[netraven@hear-me.social]

@graste proof that AI runs microsoft.

[jt_rebelo@ciberlandia.pt]

@benh it is called "Slopilot". If you think hard enough on how to say it (is it "Slo-pilot" or "Slop-ilot"?) you might be able to forget the fossilized poop one.

One day, Slopalot will be the Monty Python musical about how this technology set the world on fire. Literally. The world is burning already. Stop that. Stop it right now.

@graste My favorite part is that Copilot may not work as intended, and is for entertainment purposes only.

@benh @graste

Just as shit as fossilised dinosaur shit.

And too big to fail. Just like the dinosaurs.

@graste @simonzerafa for decades Microsoft famously falls in love with a name or prefix/suffix and re/names *everything* to use it. Remember "Visual" everything? "Active", as in Desktop, X, Server Pages, Directory? Remember the ridiculously un-searchable ".NET"? Forefront for a while in there. Everything was "Core" for a minute. Azure of course. I know I'm missing a few

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@graste Microsoft just needs to rename itself Copilot and call it done. They won't, because that would be corporate suicide, but a monkey can dream.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@mls14 @graste This is far more clever than it has any right to be.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@elduvelle @graste This is what happened to Intel. They spread themselves to thin which made their main product line suffer.

@regendans Want a job in the industry? Just pay us thousands of dollars in order to get a piece of paper that certifies your expertise.

@graste hahaha

@graste

It's replicating like Agent Smith

"The best thing about being me, there's so many me's"

[joelvanderwerf@mastodon.social]

@graste "Copilot in Viva Glint" sounds like a rock opera.

[irina@critter.cafe]

@graste "copilot in viva glint" is just throwing syllables at the wall and adding "copilot"

[tuckerm@saltylike.us]

@Li @graste such a Microsoft thing to do. Come up with a new brand identity, then slap it on everything until it means nothing.

But if this means we're getting another video of a sweaty Steve Ballmer shouting, "The keeEeEeEeey to copilot is...
DEVELOPERS" then I'm all for it.

@graste

I thought it was one product.
