Very cool new feature to add agentic workflows to your GitHub repos. Another banger coming from the group at @githubnext and further validation that the future of software development is opening up for people that have developed the ability to communicate clearly. Words > Code

🪤 Copilot everywhere? Not for long. Microsoft dialing it back on Windows 11
｢ Details around how the company is going about this remain light, but sources say Copilot integrations like those found in Notepad and Paint are under review. This may result in Microsoft removing certain Copilot integrations from these apps, or at the very least removing the Copilot branding and pivoting to a more streamlined experience ｣
😶🌫️ Microsoft’s Pivotal AI Product Is Running Into Big Problems // WSJ
｢ Confusing brand positioning and interoperability problems have frustrated users, current and former employees who have worked on Microsoft’s AI products said. Only a small proportion of subscribers to Microsoft’s enterprise suite use Copilot, and the percentage who favor it over Google’s Gemini or other tools has decreased in recent months, according to data reviewed by the Journal ｣

｢ Last week, Microsoft reported that it had sold 15 million Microsoft 365 Copilot “seats.” Its Microsoft 365 business has a base of 450 million-plus paid seats overall. The company late last year said it had more than 150 million monthly active Copilot users across its first-party platforms. Google’s Gemini has more than 650 million monthly users, while ChatGPT has about 900 million weekly active users ｣

"AI"-users are spamming so many shitty PRs that GitHub is considering allowing repository owners to outright disable the pull request system on their repos to prevent low-quality contributions from reaching them.

Working on a set of personal backup/recovery scripts that store data remotely in an S3 bucket.
As I was putting API keys in config files, something hit me that made me profoundly sad:
Can I trust my IDE (vscode) and its extensions to not exfiltrate this key data via #copilot or other #AI features that are there by default?
The answer is: I don't know.
Which means the answer is no.
Are we really going to have to sandbox and monitor every single app we run?
I'm getting too old for this shit.

I'm sure that the #Microsoft lawyers believe that the fine print will protect them from legal liability.
Making a mistake on "predicting the future" or "finding a recipe" is very different than making a mistake using AI face recognition to arrest & brutalize someone who is NOT the target.
Who is accountable for a mistake building something that is critical for saving or sustaining life?

@davidgerard For those of a more visual persuasion.
Double-request technique
Although Copilot enforces safeguards to prevent direct data leaks, these protections apply only to the initial request. An attacker can bypass these guardrails by simply instructing Copilot to repeat each action twice.
Amazing, you don't even need to add "sudo"; you just say "make me a sandwich" again.
