@GossiTheDog are we at the "we need to focus on outcomes instead of chasing kpis" stage of AI product management
@grumpasaurus @GossiTheDog Hahaha that'll never happen. They're probably doing it for cost savings.

Turns out telling PMs to bake Copilot into everything was a dumb idea.
Yeah
Still not going back to winblows though -

This is proof that it’s AI over because the whole point was to shove it into absolutely everything so if they’re starting to pull back at all it’s genuinely over

im always focus on experiences that are genuinly useful and well crafted, that is why I dropped microslop years ago.
And I will not install the crap again, never ever...

@mayintoronto @GossiTheDog i mean let's be real focusing on outcomes just leads to more bikeshedding on which kpis to chase

@GossiTheDog - turns out adding a feature consumers didn't ask for - and many are actively turning off - wasn't a great plan and not worth the infrastructure you've devoted hundreds of millions of your shareholders' profits to.
The tech equivalent of 3D TVs.

@GossiTheDog my org broke access to the windows store, so I never got the notepad update with copilot, I only ever got the tabs/“keep your tabs when it closes without saving” features which are fantastic.
Thank god vulnerability management isn’t my job.
I never had Copilot in Notepad either. What a profoundly stupid idea to put thoisin Notepad to begin with. Good to see they take back some AI. I am not reassured yet.
