For the first time ever for me, today MS Edge gave me a search result that automatically sent me to their AI chatbot. Of course, the result wasn’t helpful – I needed information about how to do the task with PowerShell, not interactively. So I clicked the button to copy the AI chatbot prompt, did new search, typed in “powershell” and pasted the original query in. It came back with results.
The results were wrong. Completely wrong. But they looked like they might be right.
If I were some new sysadmin trying to figure out something I was unfamiliar with, this would have so fouled me over.
I just have to laugh at Microsoft being so incompetent.
I mean, I know I have a chip on my shoulder about Microsoft. But man they keep shooting themselves in the foot. It’s hilarious.
Microsoft’s company motto appears to be “Quality is Job Secondhundredandthirteenth”.
