Reality has become indistinguishable from satire.

If the color scheme weren’t so atrocious, it would almost be possible to read what it says.

WTF. Enshittification expands apace.

“Was” is the operative word here. Us humans have no chance in hell against the deluge of generated slop.

Microslop Copilot for Voice! After they renamed Office, they surely will rename this one, too.

Of course, did you think fleeing from Microslop to Google would spare you the ads?

> I'd love to see the critics do better.

That’s underspecified. Part of the problem is that there are multiple incompatible definitions of “better”.

> Anything I missed?

The constantly sinking level of software quality. They make excellent hardware ruined by crappy software.

It’s almost as though some people fall over themselves trying to achieve maximum possible speed without giving any thought to where they want to be heading.

If you have to do Microslop, then DOS is a sane option. Windows 11 is just too bloated and too slow in addition to being malware.

I’m getting vertigo from the level of hypocrisy.

I thought we were supposed to have autonomous killer robots. What do we need a draft for?

This is somehow funny. A computer that can answer questions like that and its interface is still a teletype. They should have let the computer design its interface.

Agreed. It proves that LLMs can be subtle.

I thought it was about a military space unit.

The Slop Cop finds it highly LLM-y:

That would violate the minimum required level of entitlement.

> the demand is higher than expected from consumers.

Where does that assertion come from? I wouldn’t believe anything these companies say publicly.

And if they don’t, it won’t be for lack of trying, I promise you. Just like the circular financing, nothing makes more work for “AI” than “AI”.

Why was the title editorialized? The post started with the original title.

Those who do have no leverage.

Could these be different products, like Home edition vs Pro edition?

Wasn’t it Bill Gates’ dream that every coffee machine should run Windows? I guess he’s got his wish. Also, redundancy: Imagine going into space and then have no email! Can’t let that happen.

> You're either someone who cares for the output or someone who cares how readable and easy to extend the code is.

Which of course is a lie propagated by those who want to cast the disbelievers as mentally defective. Why the hell would you care how readable and easy to extend the code is if you weren’t interested in the result?

But they know better. They probably asked an LLM.

Apparently I forgot the “/s” on my parent comment.

Look at how the feudal tech lords employ the tech we actually have, do you seriously think they suddenly grow a conscience if the mythical AGI came to pass? All observable behavior will be based on insatiable greed for money and power, just as it is now.

Bring your own nuclear power plant.

Shouldn’t take too long, now that they’re switching to DC…

The danger of Steve Jobs hijacking his own private plane was obviously quite high! We can only thank the dutiful TSA officers for their brave service. I’m sure they risked their lives averting this danger. Have they been awarded any medals yet?
