This is Cortana all over again. And I don't remember people using Cortana at all...

[-] Antagnostic@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago

Cortana was a squandered opportunity for sure.

[-] KumaLumaJuma@feddit.uk 8 points 4 days ago

Didn’t use cortana directly, but the “auto block out focus time” in my work diary was a freaking game changer and I am pissed they took it away.

[-] finalarbiter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 days ago

I'm not sure if it's exactly the same, but there is a similar tool under 'viva insights' in teams

[-] KumaLumaJuma@feddit.uk 4 points 4 days ago

Unfortunately that doesn’t appear to be in our corporate-approved suite 😭😭

I wonder if I can use copilot in outlook to do something similar

[-] architect@thelemmy.club 6 points 4 days ago

I disabled it.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

While I didn't use it regularly, I did use it here and there in both W10 and W10M. The jokes were pretty good too. But I'm an old-time halo player that is geeky as fuck so I'm laser-aligned with that demographic.

Basically that.

This will be the (fifth?) time Microsoft has tried to implement virtual assistants. And they are still exceedingly inefficient at it.

I know of Clippy, Cortana, Co-Pilot and Mico so 4 that I know of and all are very useless

That dog creeped me out as a kid. Microsoft did not do 3D well.

[-] greybeard@feddit.online 5 points 4 days ago

And the search Dog and Wizard. I suppose those don't count much, but they are worth remembering.

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Give us Clippy you cowards!!!

[-] Quazatron@lemmy.world 29 points 4 days ago

I thought capitalism was about supply and demand. We demand something and corporations supply it. Who demanded this crap?

[-] architect@thelemmy.club 12 points 4 days ago

I’m convinced we are post capitalism now.

[-] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

Capitalism is about juggling numbers, empty promises, exploitation, pump & dump and „HODL🚀🚀🚀“

[-] ch00f@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

other capitalists

Bro, one more rebrand bro, then it'll work bro. This time it'll work bro

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 13 points 4 days ago

Oh man, they even have it wearing glasses and looking a lot like Microsoft Bob!

Why doesn't anyone do history anymore? There really is so much to be learned.

This lil piss guy gave me an idea.

We're gunna put AI and connectivity in Elf On A Shelf. The kids will be able to give their Christmas lists and confess their sins to the AI controlled Elf, which will have it's own Amazon wishlist.

The Elf will weigh the sins of the child, and deeming them worthy, will automatically order the appropriate gifts off the list, which will be delivered via drone down the chimney Christmas Eve, once the Elf determines the child has gone to sleep.

Ah, now computers can be infected with fungi along with worms and viruses.

[-] jodanlime@midwest.social 7 points 4 days ago

How do we murder it quickly

[-] Truscape 11 points 4 days ago

Quick, draw r34 and shitty memes!

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

I'm doing my part!

There is only room for one Micro in my heart and that is Micro Micrófono from 31 Minutos. Microsoft should be ashamed 😜 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dX9zd5pQJms
