Saw this article from Microslop the other day about their MDASH copilot model competing with Mythos for bug finding/fixing.

Microsoft security blog

And here's the image they went with for the flowchart of what the AI does... Complete with overlapping text and the worst layout I've ever seen.

Zero humans proofed this.

It's the Combigent Directive

You missed "Microsoft 36S" and "Intemal Docs"

[–] Bloefz@lemmy.world 4 points 47 minutes ago

Yeah those are very weird errors. Not like AI hallucinations. But more like OCR errors.

I wonder if they imported another PowerPoint and then the AI made images out of it to process it. That would be a very inefficient way to do it.

[–] Geobloke@aussie.zone 19 points 3 hours ago

Seems perfectly cromulent to me

[–] Egonallanon@feddit.uk 21 points 4 hours ago (4 children)

Combigent is too nice a sounding word to lack any real meaning it needs one.

[–] cadekat@pawb.social 4 points 3 hours ago

A classy male driver of a combine?

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

It also looks completely plausible for a word. I can see why an AI trained to make plausible-looking images generated it.

Now I'm curious to see what other perfectly English-looking words it comes up with

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

I guess it'll be nice to have a spare word lying around for when a wordless meaning emerges

Anyone remember how much nicer the world felt before we all realized nobody in charge of anything with any real power has any idea what the fuck they're doing?

[–] Bloefz@lemmy.world 2 points 39 minutes ago* (last edited 38 minutes ago)

Well back then we thought everyone in charge was evil. Back then we had Krutschev, Nixon etc. Always nuclear war looming. And Reagan with this trickle downs, the Bush wars over made-up WMDs etc.

I don't think there was ever really a positive period. Maybe the 90s which was kinda the high point. Economics were good, America and NATO was the undisputed world power, nobody took global warming seriously yet and the internet was promising a great future.

Then after 2000 we had the dot com crash, 9/11, the resulting wars, Russia becoming an enemy again, the financial world crisis, the rise of the internet as a surveillance tool, global warming, the pandemic, exploding house prices everywhere.

Really pretty much exactly after the change of the century everything turned to shit.

No that was a long time ago for some of us it's always been like this you were just insulated by privilege

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

They know what they are doing. Their goals just don't align with the rest of humanity.

The mistake we make is in assuming that government choices are born of incompetence... The actions of empire are not incompetent. They are not intended to serve you or the citizens, but to serve material interests, the plunder of land, natural resources, markets, and cheap labor".

RIP to the GOAT

Edit: He talks about it in the lecture starting around 15:35. Though the quote above is from his book "against empire"

We didn't all realize that at the same point. Some of us have known that for a very long time.

According to Microsoft's own terms and conditions, AI is supposed to be used for entertainment purposes only. They're breaking their own terms and conditions here.

[–] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Did their marketing department read the TOS? because that is not how copilot is advertised.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 1 points 19 minutes ago

Did their marketing department read the TOS?

They asked Copilot to summarize it for them.

I was entertained by this slide. Laughed my ass off in fact

Clown corporation. If I were employed by Microsoft, I'd probably be embarrassed to admit that in public.

So it's search engine that costs 10 times the energy.

[–] leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 hours ago

Of course it costs more, classic search engines lack the combigency and veritability Copilot provides.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 5 points 5 hours ago

And gives you the wrong information 30% of the time.

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 5 hours ago

You should have a look at some of the official PowerShell scripts they've made to assist with managing, installing, and decommissioning Exchange Servers.

One had the word group misspelled consistently the entire way through it. Another had a wonderful comment noting that an internal function (to manage something with AD permissions or deep internals of the Exchange Server) that looked misspelled was in fact spelled correctly, because the command had a typo in the real name of it.

Microslop boomers are the worst

[–] Mirodir@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 6 hours ago

There are also three "Data Flow" labels (two for the same arrow even) and I'm pretty sure it says Intemal Docs, which makes sense for and AI to mess up too because of similar m and rn look.

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago

Combigent is a perfectly cromulent word.
