This should be a strike against MS's trustworthiness, if true. A lot of workplaces are hesitant to utilise AI models due to privacy or sensitivity concerns.

It seems like a good possibility anyway, I certainly wouldn't be willing to risk it just so I could generate AI slop emails.
Next they should block me when I try to type the content manually into the Glorified Auto-Correct..
