    I just rebuilt my Win 11 Pro Workstation setup (yes, it is the version for stupidly high core and thread counts), and one of the first things I did was to violently eviscerate anything AI in the system. Right after gleefully ripping out all the telemetry and spyware.

    Yeah cause when I instinctively click the Microsoft learn link below the Azure error it takes me to copilot instead of documentation.

    I used it for my first time this year. For like a week. That was all.

    Ohh, that would be all the developers at jobs with daily AI use mandates running scheduled scripts to make it look like they are using AI.

      This is literally just wasting electricity to justify the existence of massive datacenters full of nvidia videocards.

      I ask copilot bullshit that I don’t even read sometimes just so it looks like I’m using ai more. Because my employer demands it and will start tracking AI usage for perf evals!

      Great system we have going, here.

        This is slowly becoming very much like USSR.

        I once liked saying that with capitalism and computers one can build anything, including what people rejecting capitalism (and sometimes rejecting computers) can.

        So-o, yes. Anything. Including that.

    Because they keep cramming it in all my apps at work and every time I load my email, it tries to open Copilot?

    Hey, Satya. You aren’t fooling anyone and you don’t have the knack of bald-faced lying like Kristi and Donny.

    Yea, sure. They’re unwilling “active users” because they accidentally click on some copilot garbage that’s been shoved into every inch of Windows. While I see plenty of folks using various AI tools, none of those tools are copilot.

    Didn’t they add copilot to notepad, to the file Explorer, to windows I assume as a non removable service (internet explorer anyone?), and to who knows how many more places?

    Whatever metrics they claim to have are for sure not inflated. /s

    If people are indeed using copilot a lot then great: good for you, please shut up, you don’t need me on-board.
