OS takes a screenshot every five seconds. CEO: “Damn, look how much it is being used!” /s
“A lot” is a great, quantifiable metric there, computer man! 👍👍👍📈💯🍾
The article mentions concrete numbers for the different Copilot products.
A Microsoft spokesperson tells TechCrunch that this number has grown to 150 million total.
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.
Won’t all of that just reinstall itself after the next update?
In my experience, no if properly debloated.
You stopped a bit short on your delete spree I guess.
But then again, I don’t know your workflow and needs; so I’m glad it works for you.
Is satya a pedophile? Was his name iin the Epstein files? What i dont understand about these 9-5s is they make $20-30million/ year but still willing to slave 9-5 for the rest of his life. Mofo retire and spend time with your friends. I think these people dont have any friends. The once they have might be like "pretend friends " That’s the only explanation these mofos are willing to slave and smile and get to talk to their "office friends " coz outside work nobody would talk to them.
Well yeah, you rename a core product to Copilot and suddenly you have tons of users
They have like 7 different, separate, copilots 😆
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.
Then you’re part of “monthly active Copilot users” - at least for that month
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.
Create a loop of copilot talking with itself using the copilot CLI 😉
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.
Probably GitHub Copilot.
The rest just sucks.
Because they keep cramming it in all my apps at work and every time I load my email, it tries to open Copilot?
Because Slopya has been shoving it down our throats everywhere. Office, Windows, GitHub,…
Hey, Satya. You aren’t fooling anyone and you don’t have the knack of bald-faced lying like Kristi and Donny.
AI executives don’t matter
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.
