Microsoft's AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has shared his opinion after recent pushback from users online that are becoming frustrated with Copilot and AI on Windows. In a post on X, Suleyman says he's mind blown by the fact that people are unimpressed with the ability to talk fluently with an AI computer.

His post comes after Windows president Pavan Davuluri was recently met with major backlash from users online for posting about Windows evolving into an agentic OS. His post was so negatively received that he was forced to turn off replies, though Davuluri did later respond to reassure customers that the company was aware of the feedback.

Depends on your use case. Adding 0.000001*rand() to a large number retains the functionality as a calculator.

Your argument that AI isn't useful may be valid, but claiming that AI is not repeatable is false.

    Technically its repeatable under perfect conditions? Probably I don't understand it well enough.

    Realistically repeatable when Average Joe gets his hands on it? Not today anyway.

    The seed for the random number generator isn't usually exposed to the user. Also the AI service providers regularly update the model and/or weights, producing different outputs.

    If you are running your own LLM on your own hardware you can guarantee repeatablity, but that's not what your average Joe does.
