This is getting ridiculous - you are now supposed to use Copilot to reduce your stress after losing your job? Some people are really disconnected from real life. He even suggests the proper way to pray (pardon, to prompt) to the LLM.

I understand to use an LLM to get/test an idea about something technical, or to clarify some unknown (to me) concept. But I would never treat the LLM as a friend/human that can help me with my stress management.

Opium for the masses, huh?

Microsoft and other companies need to stay human - even and especially in the face of widespread usage of AI.

This tone deafness doesn’t surprise me - and these so-called ‘leaders’ should take a hard look at how they are treating fellow humans.

There were some articles on similar tonedeaf behavior - like taking the rest of the team to a team lunch after fellow team members were laid off!

Anyone who would seriously suggest such a thing should be promptly ignored for the rest of time.
