This should do wonders for their IPO this year. Sounds like a bunch of script kiddies are running the day to day…

Perhaps they should have asked their AI how to beef up their security. 
(Or perhaps they did!)
Speaking of IPOs, SpaceX has just filed for an IPO. Will this be what makes Muskrat the world’s first trillionaire?
In other news, Happy 50th Birthday to Apple, which was founded on April 1, 1976.
a new one!

Microsoft’s terms of use for Copilot clearly state its purpose:
Copilot is for entertainment purposes only.

This is reminiscent of the Fox News claim that their network is “entertainment”, not news.
Still they push it rather aggressively to the professional market.
That is the difference between their legal department and their marketing department.
Yes, I get that. But marketing a tool towards professionals as “for entertainment only” doesn’t quite give off the right…vibes.

Never did. I only use M$ OS or software when I absolutely have to.

I admit I use vscode
Heck, I use Visual Studio 2026 at work. JetBrians Ryder at home, though.
I use Visual Studio. I tried to like Rider, but couldn’t. The nail in the coffin for me was its buggy XAML previewer. What you see is definitely not what you get a lot of the time.
I also use Qt Creator, which is a much more lightweight IDE than VS, but it works well for developing Qt Widgets apps.
I use Xcode too. It’s not horrid, but it does have its quirks.
Google search’s “AI Overview” is wrong 10% of the time:
Personally I don’t think 90% is good enough although it’s pretty easy to spot the hallucinations once you have an eye for it. For example I research a lot of businesses to figure out the headquarters address or whether a change of address is just that, or opening a new branch. And I find the AI summary regularly makes the same mistakes when I ask for the HQ address. If it’s any sort of trucking company it usually reports directly or indirectly, info from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety database, which is often just data about the transportation side of a much larger business, and will regularly hallucinate that the address the transportation license was issued to must be the HQ when it may be some lonely and not even public-facing outpost of the business.
Another little trick is that it is usually accurate if the query is:
“Business Name” corporate address
… but not if it’s, say,
“Business Name” headquarters address
… which IMO is actually a more precise label.
This is just probably a nomenclature that somehow got selected from the training data or even determined early on by a human.
All that said I always check the links cited as evidence as well as the top search results below the AI summary / response at the top of the results.
Why does this not surprise me.

How many errors is that over a 500,000 line project?
