Windows 11’s Notepad continues to get Copilot-powered AI features – a handy addition to a tool whose main appeal has always been simplicity and minimalism. Not all users are happy, however, with some saying AI features are overkill.

Plenty of jobs don't need to have Microsoft involved. Hell, plenty of computer-based jobs don't need Microsoft at all, and will be done worse with their products around

How would you get around not using Teams for a Teams meeting?

[-] Vraylle@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 2 days ago

Don't know about anyone else, but I just use the web version of Teams.

Yes, but then so is any visit to a website using Azure. But at least I don't have to install any MS software.

You don't have teams meetings. There are alternatives that don't require you to lock in in their infrastructure.

[-] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I'm aware, but if my boss is requiring me to join a Teams meeting, I'm not in much of a position to impose on him and others being requested to join the meeting, sometimes in the dozens and hundreds, to have the meeting over a different program instead.

And yet, it's not a universal experience, even though you have one

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
