Yes. We have, in fact, agreed on this. To reiterate my first post:
This guy is painfully out of touch
I'm not excusing the guy, this was a pretty dumb post,
See, it's one thing to demand that I acknowledge that this guy's post is tone deaf. It's another to demand that I only acknowledge that, presumably to give ourselves the license to go drag the guy with zero limitations.
For the record, he does not specifically shill Microsoft AI, although he does include it as "LLM tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot)". The transparent attempt to de-brand his suggestion while still including his current employer is probably part of the remarkably tasty ragebait at play here. Social media sucks, corporate social media sucks even more.
All of those things can be true at the same time. I don't need to take absolute, unequivocal sides down arbitrary party lines.
