Subject: RE: Artificial Intelligence - what could go wrong?
Just seen in an ElReg comment (on the article Microsoft boss on AI content: 'Nobody wants anything that is sloppy'):

I asked copilot for advice on some environment variable not being picked up [in] a particular context.

It read my code and answered

> 2

Just the number 2.

An off by 40 error

The article in question is itself hilarious: a study in lack-of-self-awareness error. I'm easily amused.
