>Microsoft has cut its sales targets for its agentic AI software after struggling to find buyers interested in using it. In some cases, targets have been slashed by up to 50%, suggesting Microsoft overestimated the potential of its new AI tools. Indeed, compared with ChatGPT and Google's Gemini, Copilot is falling behind, raising concerns about Microsoft's substantial AI investment. Microsoft was an early investor in many of the latest AI companies. It ended up with a serious stake in OpenAI and benefited from early access to its models, creating Bing Chat and Copilot when Google, Meta, and Anthropic were just getting started. But now its momentum has stalled, and like everyone else, it's not making much money from its AI products. That's because no one is buying them, and that is because very few people actually find them useful, The Information reports.

Because Microsoft products are generally garbage. I only use them on my work laptop because I have no other choice, I can't even download printer drivers without an admin logging in remotely.

Yeah, I use what I am forced to for work. When given a choice of apple over microsoft I always go with apple. I would rather just have a *nix laptop or something to work with. They don't want to learn how to manage them though. If they can find a "security tool" to make them feel better they would never have to manage it. Just let me manage it and all is well.

Unfortunately they cater to the least common denominator. I'm convinced our "admin" is no more than a Google admin. Trying to convince her that the reason i couldn't print was just a lack of printer drivers was a 6 hour ordeal of Microsoft updates and other drivel. Finally got the dumb bitch to download the drivers and it finally worked.

That is not even a google admin. That is basically pajeet level stupid.

FFS. It's normal for SA's to google shit. I have written documentation that was adopted as official documentation for multiple OSS projects as well as had some of my documentation on my own website(s) be the top result's on google for years (long before the current AI and crap algo shit).

Being unwilling to listen to others thoughts or having effective skills to "search" makes you suck at what you do. I bet my wife would be a better admin than that woman. Hell, she only asks me to help her with stuff now after she has done all of the basics I have shown her over the years.
