A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

AI at Microsoft has not been optional for months. Someone I know has a job at Microsoft and has described it as hell. No human guidance or training, when asking questions of higher-ups they're told to "ask Copilot", Copilot is used for all internal documentation such as employee records and user tickets so when they need to find someone's department or answer end-user questions they have to ask Copilot. They said it's like having a full on conversation every time they need a small bit of information that a spreadsheet or database could accomplish much quicker.
This is org-specific and role-specific, but it's becoming more and more pushed onto people (as is evident by this article).
This information is both present in most internal communication tools (org chart), and in the internal directory. Hopefully your friend found it.
Everything else sounds horrible, and I hope your friend is doing better now.
