Microsoft are extremely exposed if the AI bubble bursts. Copilot is being rammed into everything and metrics being added for millions of hours saved in dashboards etc because the farm is being bet on it, basically.

And every time Microslop reinstalls Copilot on my PCs without asking, I uninstall it like the climate-busting and brain-draining malware it is.

@GossiTheDog I’m almost done moving all my clients from on-prem Exchange to the cloud. If the bubble bursts they’d better not take all my emails with them!!

What ho?!

Nobody's buying AI-bullshit for the label price, let alone the realized cost to creatives, the environment, institutional knowledge, and truth?

I hope your money-printing machine burns to the fucking ground you soulless fucking ghouls.

@GossiTheDog Satya begging us to "stop calling it AI slop" was actually a call for help

@GossiTheDog Which employees who work on technology their customers actually find valuable will they lay off to deal with this one?

@GossiTheDog fortunately for them, everyone's just as exposed, because every company with a computer has its CEO tightly invested into AI.

@GossiTheDog

Microsoft and other Big Tech firms have engaged with their partners in the advertising and public relations sector to promote AI.

Partners include the UK government.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp37prvp072o

Government offers UK adults free AI training for work

The online lessons give advice on things such as how to prompt chatbots or complete admin tasks.

Search engine aggregation users can’t trust is a shitty thing to bet the farm on.

@GossiTheDog

The structural problems with MS management structure that led to this are obvious to anyone who worked there and paid attention. The fact that they are not obvious to the senior leadership team makes it very clear that they are all desperately unqualified for their jobs. Which somehow doesn’t stop them taking home tens of millions of dollars a year.
