Openai announces new slop generator GPT-6 Astra: Unfortunately not any better than the last one

We have copilot at work and we are expected to use it. They recently updated the Copilot desktop app to include live voice chat, where you can have actual “conversations” with it. To be honest, that actually is kind of impressive. Unfortunately, that’s also about where the impressiveness stops. I burned up all of my daily voice chat limits, and I don’t even know how many tokens trying to get that stupid thing to walk me through making a relatively minor configuration change in Azure. It could not do it. It was consistently wrong about so many things.

You would think Microsoft would be embarrassed about selling a chatbot that can’t even tell you how to make basic configuration changes to their own products. Personally, I’m not strongly opposed to LLMs. But the value proposition that all these tech firms are currently selling is laughable at best.

The vanilla copilot bundled in windows is completely useless and not suitable for enterprise use …

Any company serious about productivity gain would use something else …

I am by no means a pro-AI techbro, but my company invested into making a bespoke AI solution (yes it connects to one of the big boys on the backend) and it makes a world of difference.

I think a lot of the AI hate comes from people who have never used a paid model coupled with a good frontend…
