Have had another go at trying to get #Copilot to write me some #Rstats code that will work with the new ONS API. A very frustrating process that ended, again, in failure. I don't know why the ONS changed things. But I suspect the end result is fewer people can download the data.

💥 AI is so amazing that even Microsoft has to force its own employees by threatening to fire those who resist.

OMG. #Microsoft#Copilot bypasses #Sharepoint #security so you don’t have to!

“CoPilot gets privileged access to SharePoint so it can index documents, but unlike the regular search feature, it doesn’t know about or respect any of the access controls you might have set up. You can get CoPilot to just dump out the contents of sensitive documents that it can see, with the bonus feature* that your access won’t show up in audit logs.”

The S in CoPilot stands for Security!
