Hm... Come to think of it...

Fact #1: Microsoft claims their codebase is now 30% AI-generated.

Fact #2: US courts are in pretty unanimous agreement that AI generated material cannot be copyrighted.

So... What percentage of AI-generated code does Microslop need to reach before their software copyrights become unenforceable?

    Microsoft is using Discord and not Teams?

    I heard once that Microsoft employees are not allowed to use Teams to communicate on the job. Not sure why. Probably because it sucks or is terribly insecure.

    No idea who told you this, but MS employees use Teams exclusively.

    As for it being terrible, it's unfortunately hard to find a competitor that does better with the same feature set (video/screen sharing/text channels/sso/tenants/etc). Many get close (like Slack) but none have the whole package.

    Microslop is the most microslopping microslop that ever microslopped.

    If they don't want to be limp dicks they should rebrand to 'macrohard'.

    Since the bottom of an article is usually the least visible, I'll paste this here to make it more visible:

    “The Copilot Discord channel has recently been targeted by spammers attempting to disrupt and overwhelm the space with harmful content not related to Copilot. Initially, this spam consisted of walls of text, so we added temporary filters for select terms to slow this activity. We have since made the decision to temporarily lock down the server while we work to implement stronger safeguards to protect users from this harmful spam and help ensure the server remains a safe, usable space for the community,” a Microsoft spokesperson told Windows Latest.

    Microsoft added that blocking terms such as “Microslop,” along with other phrases in the spam campaign, was not intended as a permanent policy but a short-term mitigation while the company manages to put additional protections in place.

    Whether it's true or not that the policy was temporary, I guess we'll see.
