@invadersil Plenty of Microsoft's other software may not work as intended, so I don't see this as a big change.

@invadersil lots of things are labeled "for entertainment use only" or "for novelty use only."

@invadersil @cstross It certainly doesn't help with work. Maybe it entertains Microsoft to be able to charge more for systems with extra spyware?

@invadersil Now I’m considering if it would be possible to have entertainment software on corporate computers explicitlyprohibited, and then have CoPilot banned… 🤔

@invadersil "entertainment"? huh... i give it one out of five stars. i've seen mandatory HR training videos that were more entertaining. i've had DMV visits more entertaining.

@invadersil As if LLMs didn't resemble scammers pretending to be psychics enough...

@shelldozer@oldbytes.space 2026-03-31 22:16
@invadersil It should have said "CoPilot is for *other people's* entertainment."

@invadersil You know how someone tries to get away with saying some horrible sexist or racist thing by claiming they were just joking? "For entertainment only" is the equivalent of that. They are neither joking, nor trying to entertain. Microsoft just wants something they can point to, when they get sued.

@invadersil JFC why are they cramming it down our throats then???

@invadersil @siguza tried dealing with it today, not sure if entertained but definitely need to listen to more rage against the machine.

@invadersil that's one heck of a "get out of jail" card if I ever seen one...
-
@mmu_man@m.g3l.org 2026-03-31 23:29
@invadersil the problem is, it's not even entertaining to see everyone screwing up using it.

@kauer@aus.social 2026-03-31 23:35
@invadersil How do we know what message "that last boost" refers to?
-
@nazokiyoubinbou@urusai.social 2026-04-01 00:00
@invadersil Yet they cram it into everything. Apparently 11 has some overlay even in games? I am so glad I escaped from Windows before ever even seeing what 11 looked like up close.

@invadersil the term above that one is the really shady one People are responsible for any action that copilot takes Isn't this a serious violation of AI policy and guardrails?

@invadersil from december this year, this kind of disclaimers will stop to have value in the EU. LOL

@fartnuggets@jorts.horse 2026-04-01 04:06
@invadersil isn't this the same warning they put on dildo packaging? Actually, given how fucked everything is, that kinda makes sense.

@invadersil waiting for terms like adult novelty, may induce cancer in California, batteries not included etc

@tootbrute@fedi.arkadi.one 2026-04-01 06:37
@invadersil same as TOS for tesla only for entertainment. wheels may fall off. door handles don't always function. do not use for important tasks. use at own risk.

@invadersil So we're at the point where the lawsuits are eating up the profits made from marketing bullshit 🤗

@mattw@mast.hpc.social 2026-04-01 12:33
@invadersil was pretty much expecting this, and even more, like in the text entry field. Particularly after the lady who dropped her legal team and pursued action against her insurance company with ChatGPT legal briefs. The insurance company and their lawyers are suing OpenAI for practicing law in the state without a license. Expect a disclaimer on all of them soon that says they’re not intended to be used for any serious purpose ever. I’m expecting many more lawsuits.

@invadersil I heard Copilot is for tobacco use only
-
@c64whiz@oldbytes.space 2026-04-02 03:43
@invadersil Want to know something scary as shit about this? Large corporations are pushing CoPilot, even offering "training" in its use. "For entertainment purposes only" is M$ covering it's ass and nothing else.
-
@Primo@donphan.social 2026-04-02 14:38
@invadersil I wonder if company deals have the same TOS. Or if these even exist.

@invadersil@mastodon.social Even Microsoft knows how useless the technology they're trying to push on all of us is.
