Comment on UK government trial of Microsoft's M365 Copilot finds no clear productivity boost
echodot@feddit.uk 4 weeks agoI don’t think it’s people being resistant to change I think it’s people understanding the technology isn’t useful. The tagline explains it best.
AI tech shows promise writing emails or summarizing meetings. Don’t bother with anything more complex
It’s a gimmick, not a fully fleshed out productivity tool, of course no one uses it. That’s like complaining that no one uses MS paint for the production of a high quality graphics.

Absolutely, and it’s a massive and undeserved cash cow for AI companies (e.g. Sam Sister Altman).
AI is never an investment for businesses or individual users. It’s a bloated and unfulfillable promise that just makes users dumb, dependant, and destroys the very environment we need to survive.
It also produces bad products (it’s easy to tell which devs use it from reviewing poor quality code).
Not to mention the centralisation of power with the rich who are the problem in this world.
