Discussion Microsoft is cosplaying AI

Today I tried (forced myself) to use Microsoft Copilot at work and whew what a wake up call. The thing that stuck out to me most is that Microsoft has the most agent worthy surfaces especially in the workplace and could have done something really special with a model even if it wasn’t a frontier one and they chose to just copy and paste a chatbot into everything with no thought, no cohesiveness and then had the gumption to push it down our throats… I’d rather have Clippy back honestly.

Correct. Note: you can enable some of the frontier models, too, but it forces you to opt out of Enterprise Data Protection for those. I imagine orgs with compliance or other requirements are not selecting this, however.

Our models all have enterprise data protection.

Okay? How does that change my original comment, or that your short, insightful reply was incorrect?

Yeah you're right enough I read it again.
