  • But it’s likely I already agreed to the strings when I agreed to my company’s demand that we use Teams.

    Bingo. The licenses were agreed to when the product was purchased, not when you click “yes, ok, show me the tutorial”

    I mean it sucks and I don’t use these tools either despite them being forced into my work machine, but if you’re getting psychic damage every morning bc the pop up you could just click through it and ignore the shit tools from there. That’s all I’m saying, your sanity is worth clicking a few buttons.


  • Great. Sorry for confusing you with my vague “your company did x” in my previous reply. I was trying to refer to the OP commenter I replied to in this thread. If a feature is enabled and provisioned to you, it’s largely true that your company has already accepted the license agreement for you to use it. I wish my company didn’t shove ai everywhere but many are and as employees (in the US atelast) we don’t have any ability to not agree to these terms.





  • You could just click yes, do whatever two minute intro it has and then ignore the feature forever from there.

    Instead you click no every time and complain that it pops up again the next time, knowing that it’ll pop up again tomorrow

    Listen I hate these tools too but you have a solution here that’ll make it so the tool will stop pestering you so that you can truly ignore it.





  • Read the article, sounds like both parties are just blowing smoke. At the end it tells us current investment into this market was less than 100b last year. So 1tril is a 10x investment of the yearly we see today. It also suggested the entire chip industry is doing about 600b in sales. So Sam is looking to take a 10x investment into the space?

    Altman’s fundraising goal of $5 trillion to $7 trillion far exceeds the present valuation of the worldwide semiconductor industry, which recorded sales of $527 billion last year and is anticipated to hit the $1 trillion mark by 2030. Meanwhile, chip manufacturers invested $99.5 billion in chip fabrication equipment in 2022 and are projected to allocate $97 billion for fabrication tools this year.

    I mean I believe the numbers they come up with, that they want to 10x the space. But it’s a ludicrous goal that doesn’t really make sense in practice. Every CEO would love to take on 7 trillion dollars of investment to do anything and would scream it from the mountaintops.

    I just don’t know that what they are saying is meaningful at all, at least Sam’s 7tril claim
