Get the original picture instead of an AI manipulated one.

Thank you. Fuck whatever AI slop OP posted.

I wouldn’t fuck it tbh.

Refusing AI by using an AI generated meme?

But why?

[–] errer@lemmy.world 35 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Even AI thinks copilot is shit

Fake Ryan Gosling sez "HET!" to machine-generated memes.

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

yeah but "sir meemsalot" put his watermark on it so it must be good

[–] turdburglar@piefed.social 58 points 3 weeks ago

it is considered rude to show ai slop to other humans

[–] belated_frog_pants@beehaw.org 33 points 3 weeks ago

Using an ai image to portray this?

[–] mech@feddit.org 31 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Why is Ryan Gosling in this meme?

[–] jojowakaki@lemmy.world 38 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It was generated using copilot, for the added irony.

[–] ozymandias@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I work in a small IT business, where I regularly setup notebooks or pc for the customer and install the software they need for work.

I always remove copilot from the Taskbar and the startmenu. Also usually install firefox with ublock origin, in the hope that they will try it out and get the ad-free experience in comparison to chrome and edge.

Its not much, but it honest work.

Is Microsoft just another name for Microslop?

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think that's what they were called before they rebranded.

Co-pilot slowed down my work machine to near unusable, and they make it pretty hard to get rid of. I'm not anti-AI at all and I hate co-pilot because of how it was deployed. Windows in general got in the habit of hiding options from users and installing things like security that bogs down the computer more than helps but can't be easily turned off.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

First thing I had opening my work laptop yesterday, notification pop-up titled "Open and pin Copilot!"

Fuck...OFF!

[–] homes@piefed.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

OK, but I still wanna fuck Ryan Gosling

Everyone does but that is an infiltration unit wearing his corpse as a skinsuit

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 9 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

So... If you don't want it... Does that mean the infiltration unit is available? Will it take me horseback riding on a beach? Wearing the skinsuit?

So.. uh.. laptops have a copilot key on the keyboard now..

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 14 points 2 weeks ago

It's exactly where my control key used to be, so I often hit that button and nothing happens, unless Im using a Windows via AWS and suddenly I keep getting copilot springing up.

It's a really user hostile move knowing that people will accidentally hit that button

[–] Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

So now I have to turn off the freaking Windows key and a copilot key.

Perfectly reasonable

It's janky AF mess.

Internally the copilot key is hard coded to be meta + shift + f23. If you don't recognise what the f23 key is, that's because it was last featured over four decades ago on the IBM model M.

The fact that Microsoft has decreed that the Copilot key must send this exact shortcut of three different keys makes it very difficult to remap consistently.

Most keyboard remapping software (SharpKeys) work best at remapping single keys, not shortcuts. Windows users can use PowerToys to remap this three key shortcut, if you try to use it normally as a right ctrl, e.g. rctrl lshift p it doesn't work consistently.

I suspect it might be because you're essentially trying to send a whopping five keycodes for a shortcut, when most programs already struggle to handle 4.

Linux users were similarly out of luck until early last year, when most desktop environments fixed up the key codes.

Copilot key is based on a button you probably haven’t seen since IBM’s Model M - Ars Technica - https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/04/shoehorned-windows-copilot-key-is-just-a-reprogrammable-macro-journalist-shows/

I get to participate in a project to see how well-adopted AI tools are in our company... with the intent to see where we should invest in more promotion and schooling in how useful and valuable they can be.

Didn't have the heart to tell the manager requesting my assistance that I'm also one of the non-adopters and no amount of promotion or schooling offer is likely to change that. They're lower management anyway, can't change the decisions made higher up, and I'm not gonna pick fights and sour working relations where there's nothing to win.

They'll sneak it into your editor when you're not looking.

My company forces me to use it. It’s shit. I asked for Claude. And this is what they give me. It can’t even parse the file I send it. It forgets I uploaded the file after about 16 seconds and asks for me to upload it again. It’s amazing how bad it is.
