  Funny thing is that is not likely. The shareholders of microsoft (and most blue chip companies) have not really asked for anything other then endless profits lately. This endless drive into shit seems to be almost entirely driven by weird sales pitches and executives chasing a sunk cost.

    The general idea is that whoever left behind in AI tech will vanish or lose power the next decade. Like Yahoo and other companies during the 2010+. So Google, Meta, Amazon and Microsoft compete now and they don’t care about users. Their focus is enterprise market and the future domination.

    Shareholders of Microsoft push AI.

    Competitor Shareholders push AI.

    Shareholders of hardware push AI.

    Enterprise pushes AI.

      Ha, like 5% of the time. Most of the time its cluster fuck after cluster fuck and visits from the good idea fairies.

      Not saying there should not be innovation, but innovation for nothing but to be able to say you are doing innovation is a cancer.

        Yes, that’s why I wrote “innovation” and not innovation. I’m not sure if there’s something that better communicates the Dr. Evil air quotes.
