Surely they wanted to name it Microsoft 365 Copilot Slop, but the CEO was against that.

Lol. Please everyone contribute to the change you want to see. If you're not sharing spreadsheets and slide decks in a team, then for personal use you should be good with Collabora (LibreOffice based). It's great. Write your novel and short stories in Collabora

In reality the copilot is not their ai, it is the user!! They drain every single click, data, keyboard input, every mouse mouvements for a while now. The strategy is to train an ai to replace the worker. The copilot is you.

OnlyOffice and LibreOffice are still called OnlyOffice and LibreOffice.

Right after I learn about how much of a failure Copilot has been, and they do this. I'm not surprised, but man.

One could only wish; as fucked up as it sounds, it’s real.

Microslop has outdone itself beyond measure.

Microsoft has like 15 words they just keep rearranging for all their products, kinda like what taco bell did for "mexican" food.

Microslop 365 Copilot App. Has a nice ring to it.

The Chief Sloperator striktes again

Microsoft: We can't find anyone who likes Copilot.

Also Microsoft: Let's rebrand our only well-received products as Copilot.
