i still can't get over microsoft saying copilot is for entertainment purposes only

[Gast]

@rakslice @eniko I don't think they merely copy-pasted the Flight Simulator EULA, the Copilot Terms of Use don't really read like that. It all seems very deliberate.

I think the Microsoft legal team looked at how many times Copilot returns false results and went "whoa whoa whoa, we better cover our asses"

@eniko I've been saying for years that AI should come with "entertainment purposes only" label, so imagine my reaction to the news

[Gast]

They did achieve some entertainment with that line in the EULA for sure.

[Gast]

@eniko which is a weird thing to say given that businesses have to pay for that with their Office subsciption.

But then again, even MS Windows Pro used to include solitaire.exe, giving hours of entertainment to bored office workers

[Gast]

@eniko I have to interact with it at work, and it's not even *good* entertainment.

[Gast]

@eniko 's that mean it IS fit for purpose? Aaaa

[Gast]

@eniko I used to watch videos or read articles on my lunch break but now I just get Microslop Copilot to tell me funny jokes

[Gast]

@eniko where did they say this? there are tons of ai bros at work who think this is fine for safety critical infrastructure and they need a beat down

[Gast]

@eniko Wait..that happened?

...that's deranged. 0_0

@mmby @Tijn @eniko

This is what happened to Clippy, when he went through the Captain Capitalism machine like Steve Rogers.
