Isnt the ai slop exactly what they wanted and even demanded just some time ago?

You built the world's most resource intensive asshole, you deserve to have your lips sewn around it.

Let's be real, performance reviews have always been slop.

"EV President" who the fuck says this? It's "Executive VP"

[–] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 16 points 9 hours ago

"My one condition for this interview - I must be referred to with my President title in full, not shortened to VP. People always focus on the 'executive' part and forget the President part. It's important."

WELL WELL WELL, WHO COULD'VE PREDICTED SUCH A PREDICAMENT??????????

perhaps Microsoft's senior execs need to read the room, sit down, and take some responsibility for the chaos they've unleashed on the world.

And come down from their ivory towers, see things from the same plane of existence as the serfs and plebeians that should be grateful for living under their shadow? Preposterous!!!

This is the guy who’s head of Office. The person responsible for greenlighting Copilot in Excel

[–] Smokeless7048@lemmy.world 29 points 11 hours ago

Or, even worse, renaming office 360 to copilot

You made your bed now sleep in it, you prince.

wild that this has basically become "you guys need to take some personal responsibility and use AI in a way that is useful and makes us a return on our insane investment"

[–] chunk6235@piefed.social 17 points 12 hours ago

Good, you can get the same exp the rest of us have to deal with from both coworkers and clients.

Nothing like getting a slopmail with some dumbass ai answer not even remotely related to the issue at hand.

Drown in the cesspit you’ve filled to overflowing.

Hoist by his own petard

How ironic....

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

When you're losing your biggest fans (e.g. the author), that's a strong signal..
