Boy, the mods for this game are going to be something.

I agree that that is an experience I have frustratingly had as well. I disagree that it won’t change. Agentic Ai allows for specialized services to be integrated. All it would take is an agent to be created that specializes in creating pptx documents and the integrated into the primary service. The capability already exists it just need to be implemented correctly.

Document summary, quick email replies that sound coherent and professional when you have one foot out the door on a Friday, if the Org has fabric then the PowerPoint copilot can be a real time save of given me a presentation based off this outline and use some data as the source.

I find that those who are office professionals that don’t like AI most often either have expectations of perfection or don’t know how to prompt properly.

Ai excels at get you 60-70% of the way there the first time. Then you can either refine it with additional prompts or manually. Either way if it saves me time and effort on something I care nothing about then it is worth it to me.

WHY?!?

(yes, I know it is data mining, but still)

One might describe that as a concentration camp.

Maybe we will get lucky and some/all will fall into the canals and drown.

In order to be most effective it would need to be dynamic rather than a fixed on/off like rear brake lights. Stopping doesn’t mean stopped. So perhaps a progressive light bar that starts lighting up at 20mph and adds a light for each 5mph drop until the whole bar is lit indicating a full stop. That would give pedestrians a sense of rate of deceleration.

How do I set my car’s status to “It’s complicated”?

I sure hope they had multiple cloud backups.

I constantly refer to my parents and in-laws as children. Why? Because they behave exactly like my 11 year old. They have no critical reasoning skills, no emotional intelligence, are easily offended, and can not be reliability left on their own without screwing something up.

At some point around retirement age, humans seem to cognitively revert back to children and those of us in middle adulthood are left to parent our actual children and our childish parents.

And your qualifications in computer science are…?

“Most _______ illiterate speech I have ever heard” is just an accurate summary of literally ANYTHING Trump says.

Perhaps partly, my personal belief is the is traces back to early tribal days. I believe the first cultural leaders likely struggled with retaining control and authority at a certain point. After all, there is only so much you can threaten people with to keep them in like. The worse of which is death. A sufficiently motivated person may not care about their physical well-being if they want to achieve a important enough goal. Create an invisible “soul” and a space wizard that determines if that soul gets bliss or torture after death and it adds a new level of control.

I truly understand both sides here. I have an autistic child and while all the love and pride in them is genuinely there and we make conscious effort to vocalize that to them regularly, life with a neurodivergent child is hard and incredibly frustrating a lot of the time. Bedtime is usually the worst, which means that by the time they go down you have reached or surpassed your limit.

One of the most frustrating things as a neurodivergent parent is that the majority of your social group will have zero understanding of what you go through on a daily basis. That means that often times the only person you can vent to is your partner.

That is not at all what he said. He said that creating some arbitrary benchmark on the level or quality of the AI, (e.g.: as it’s as smarter than a 5th grader or as intelligent as an adult) is meaningless. That the real measure is if there is value created and out out into the real world. He also mentions that global growth is up by 10%. He doesn’t provide data that correlates the grow with the use of AI and I doubt that such data exists yet. Let’s not just twist what he said to be “Microsoft CEO says AI provides no value” when that is not what he said.

But what about the tax preparation industry? Won’t anybody think of the shareholders? For shame.
