it just takes a few stupid people in higher positions to negate the work of hundreds more competent people.

I don’t understand the M$ endgame with Win 11.
Like, it would be very easy to paint this as intentional… but as Halon’s sez “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity”.
Putting aside low hanging fruit (end stage capitalism, ai bad etc)…y u do this, Microsoft? You have good people there, right? Top. Men. Right?
I’d love to read something on this topic from a M$ insider / ex-pat. I’m trying to understanding why M$ is doing the equivalent of Sideshow Bob stepping on garden rakes.
What’s up over there?

They’re relying more and more on AI coding.

no no no, you misunderstand, this is malice, but the reason backing it is stupid and short sighted. i mean, unless the game plan was to run off their customers like a movie troupe

Their entire company philosophy and culture revolves around Copilot.
Every coding task needs to start with a prompt.
The use of Copilot is tracked and if you don’t use it enough, you get called into a meeting.
Copilot is used to write your own progress reports and by management to read them for performance reviews.
So basically, Windows 11 is now vibe-coded using the worst AI on the market.

My job is the same way. Management expects daily utility of copilot because we pay for premium and it is part of our performance metrics. They added “onboarding artificial intelligence” as part of every job description.
