- ahartmetz 3mo agoAs "Principal Program Manager, Copilot Acceleration Team" even. That's sad. It sounds like person in charge of "Hey do you want Copilot? How about now? How about now? And now?! Here's another popup! Do you want it now? Why not?! Have you tried Copilot?" Etc... (I know about title inflation, he's probably not in charge of all that much, but still)
- dmd 3mo agoCopilot means so many things now it doesn't even tell you anything about they do.
- inigyou 3mo agoIt was explained to me that the word "Copilot" is just Microsoft's brand for what the rest of us call "AI" - just like "365" means "online", "Azure" means "cloud", "Entra" means "login" and ".NET" used to mean "with a computer". So when you see something like "Azure Copilot 365" you can pretend they wrote, fully generically, "Online Cloud AI". If you see a button labelled "Copilot" you understand it would've said "AI" if they were any other company.
- mossTechnician 3mo agoMicrosoft also apparently "rebranded Office to Microsoft 365 in 2022"[0], causing a lot of confusion about what "Microsoft 365 Copilot" on their homepage meant, but I think it would translate to "Cloud Office Suite + Cloud AI" [0]: https://www.theverge.com/tech/856149/microsoft-365-office-rebrand-copilot https://www.theverge.com/tech/856149/microsoft-365-office-re...
- inigyou 3mo agoMicrosoft 365 means Microsoft Online, according to the translator. And it makes sense: they are positioning Office as their core product, not just one of many products. They are renaming Microsoft Office to just Microsoft; this is the online version (which happens to be the only version); and it has AI, which they are prominently showcasing. Hence, Microsoft 365 Copilot. It means "Microsoft Online, now with AI" Of course, all of this is completely retarded.

- anvuong 3mo agowtf is this nonsense? Compared to the OP I personally think you are the one who needs help, or at least stop consuming media from whatever sources you are consuming right now,
- DonHopkins 3mo agoYour performative temper tantrum is also a classic MAGA shibboleth. Now we all know where you stand, and that you want everyone to know too. Asking people not to denigrate others is just beyond the pale for you. By all means, direct your anger, hostility, and name-calling at me instead of people with disabilities. Would calling me the f-word make you feel better?
- bdsa 3mo agoThat's the article author Robert Standefer, I don't think he created Comic Chat, that was David Kurlander...
- monknomo 3mo agohere's the creator on his creation: https://kurlander.net/DJ/Projects/ComicChat/resources https://kurlander.net/DJ/Projects/ComicChat/resources
- EvanAnderson 3mo agoThank you. This should be a top-level comment.
- outintospace 3mo agoThat is correct. DJ Kurlander is the creator of Comic Chat and he is credited in the blog post. I'm just the guy that made the open source release happen, with DJ's support. He retired from Microsoft 20+ years ago.
- 98codes 3mo agoIt's a team (part of engineering, not sales) that helps companies that bought M365 Copilot and/or Copilot Studio use it well - http://aka.ms/whoiscat http://aka.ms/whoiscat
- outintospace 3mo agoThanks for sharing the link. I built that site. :)
- brcmthrowaway 3mo agoSo, do you love Copilot?
- outintospace 3mo agoI like Copilot. I love my Prada backpack.
