It's always baffled me how Microslop's entire business model as far back as I can remember seems to be "Make the shittiest possible version of every product imaginable, then watch it for some reason become the global standard, then make it even worse and suffer no consequences."

    They can afford to have AI fail, almost every business in Europe and the US buys their software. That’s not going away anytime soon

    If they lose all the money they have pumped into AI, then they will be relying on Windows and Office.

    Good for them that both of those are currently doing fine.

    I feel like you were being sarcastic, but they're actually fine in enterprises, which is what they actually care for.

    Well I don't think they're growing. Depending on the sector all the AI data scanning is a concern for a number of companies. I've seen a lot of European discussions about getting away from US cloud services too.
