    I am really shocked to say the least, that any government could trust Microsoft Copilot.

      I was recently introduced to a Microsoft focused Managed Service Provider who told me to my face that they absolutely adopted it in their business to “help run it”.

      After that I stopped listening to anything they had to say.

      Microsoft has very deep tentacles all over the Australian Government, even more after they donated some money for a random new initiative which does nothing for society and in my opinion absolutely benefits the Microsoft bottom line.

      We’ve had “Cash for Comments”, this is “Government Bought and Paid For”…

    Honestly it’s not too surprising it’s better at searching than being or Google and it’s better at rewording things than most government employees

    And then they can ask it for a picture of a koala with a chicken’s head deliver.

    What else does a government worker need?
