Microsoft, apparently trying to enhance every product it has with an AI-powered Copilot, announced a new one for the latest release of SQL Server Developer Tools (SSDT) in Visual Studio. SELECT * FROM table is my copilot

DreamBerd is a perfect programming language! I can't believe these features aren't in all languages!
Yeah, a joke, but still better than some of the languages around these days.

The EU is pushing big tech to apply a new method for tackling AI disinformation: labels. This post written by the Kent-o-matic 3000

If at least they could cope with normal disinformation...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Everyone is blown away by the new AI-based assistants. Except the programmers writing the AI
|

|

yeah, because programmers more likely to know AI not exist, but Machine Learning tools do

I did find it useful to give me a start on a regex e.g. "give me the regular expression to separate all words in this string"

I've used ChatGPT 4 a few times for areas that I am not familiar with as part of some C# WinForms projects. In each case it generated nice looking code. But when I dropped it in place it couldn't compile. As I dug into it, it had used syntax that probably belonged to another language or library.
When I queried it for more details it acknowledged the mistake and gave me more uncompilable corrections.
I’ve also found when I ask it about a subject that answered correctly, ChatGPT is quick to apologize for its error anyway. Poor thing acts like a skittish dog that is used to getting abused.
I canceled my subscription after one month.
Overall, it’s pretty amazing at what it does, but it doesn’t really know what it is talking about. I’m concerned that with Stack Exchange and others accepting AI answers that it is going to lose good search results to the entropy that is AI.

AI-assisted development has become the emerging technology that developers are engaging with the most, beating out other technologies like generative AI, robotics, quantum computing, self-driving cars, non-cryptocurrency blockchain applications, cryptocurrency, 5G, the metaverse, and more. The other 37% are fixing the 63%'s code

63% of _me_ sure ain't.
And I have enough tequila handy to prevent it.

Yeah but can it play Doom?

Microsoft's Windows 11 Moment 3 update brings a range of new features and improvements, designed to enhance user experience. To read, when you have a moment

Wow! "Moment"! What an impressive word someone came up with!

I'll bet it was a VP with too much time on their hands. And that it wasted a lot of other people's time.

They dropped the letters "ve" after "mo".
And the prefix "bowel".

After a reported seven years of development, Apple’s AR headset is finally here. "I reject your reality and substitute my own"
And at $3500US, that's a lot of reality to reject. Plus, look like you're heading to the ski hill while staying in the office!

Quote: The headset is surprisingly similar to earlier renders — it does, indeed, look like ski googles. Clearly this thing isn’t meant to be worn outside the home or office.
Some kind of Freudian slip?

 Definitely a Freudian slip. My fingers are too used to typing the company name.

Last month, IBM and the National Eating Disorder Association announced plans to reduce their human staff. Once AI starts taking management jobs, that should change their minds
|
|
|
|
|
Quote: Similarly, last month, The National Eating Disorder Association shut down it’s telephone helpline in favor of an AI chatbot named Tessa
Quote: NEDA pulled the Tessa chatbot last week after the nonprofit said on Instagram that it may have given harmful information to those seeking comfort.
I wonder whose genius plan that was?
