They called the idea nutty, even seedy, but the Copilot mascot turned out to be a seminal piece of marketing that spawned generations to follow. This was a huge release that left a lot of the more conservative viewers clutching their pearl necklaces. Cream of the crop. Busting once and for all the myth that Microsoft isn't a fertile place for breeding marketing innovation. Coming out of nowhere, a climactic moment in the 2025 AI summer. Truly a moment to refract on during the upcoming period. All the money they've splooged on AI is finally coming to fruition and not just blown off and swallowed. The success will surely rub off on the AI industry as a hole or at least jack up Microsoft shares with vigorous excitement. And other semen jokes.

Strange, ever noticed how many of the genAI logos looked like an anus? https://velvetshark.com/ai-company-logos-that-look-like-buttholes. "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action", what is dozens of times?

Another Oglaf reference???

Oh, right. I forgot the obligatory comment.

@dgerard why did you make the header image so sexy again?

I’m into Clippy

Or is it the fat just walking away? anyone remember the Adipose

Does it really?

I hate my desktop

Should we tell him that it's Microsoft's fault?

The video is heavily euphemised and I think I got away with it

Sidenote: It would be hilarious if YouTube began demonetising videos featuring Microsoft Copilot's Cum Zone

something something facial recognition

Liquid glass (the apple thing) also looks like semen.

Young and dumb

Tofu, if it were orange the article would read "...looks like a blob of orange semen"
