Don't make me think - The challenges with Microsoft Copilot and Azure OpenAI

The answer is: Copilot

...but what was the question?

It's true, the hype is very present and, similar to Microsoft Teams before it, it affects all areas of daily work if you work in a Microsoft-influenced environment.

The title "Dont make me think" is borrowed from Steve Krug's book with the same name about web design. If you look at the topics covered in the book, you will quickly find parallels to the current situation with generative AI. This is even more impressive considering that the book was first published over 20 years ago.

Or as Wictor Wilén - Product Leader @ Microsoft described it so well in his post on LinkedIn:

If you need to be an engineer to use ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot - then we failed!:

Even if Wictor's context here was the topic of prompt engineering, the conclusion also applies to the topic of AI in general.
