Microsoft’s aggressive AI push in Windows 11 through 2025 brought upon themselves the title Microslop. Unfortunately for the company, it’s everywhere on social media, and there isn’t a way to stop the spread, unless, of course, it’s their own Discord server.

Have you been seeing a lot of megacorporations get their act together and start behaving reasonably lately?

    Obviously not, but their stock took a big dump and their AI spend is not sustainable yet they just keep going.

    My orgs Win 11 GM is AI free so non-AI Windows is still maintained so a switch could be flipped today.

    They could probably charge more for AI free Windows and Office
