GPT-4 powered browser
No faster way to get me to avoid your product than by jamming AI where it's not needed
I work in IT at a company who uses outlook, but has locked down the phones so the users can’t install anything.
I can say without a reason of the doubt that outlook on Android is hateful.
It’s still a 2010 era android app with non of the desktop features working. Like the signature not syncing with your saved ones. And focused inbox hiding important emails.
But since the phones are locked down. These dark patten ads are twice as annoying since the user thinks there phone is broken. They just removed the Microsoft 2fa prompts on setup. But I saw this and almost cried.
Don’t assume that users are smart enough to read or understand how this works. They press buttons until it works. If we didn’t force google play to not allow edge to download our users would’ve been in a much harder situation to support.
I really wish users would learn the slightest bit how to use their shit
gpt-4 powered browser
kill me
GPT-4 powered browser? Like they needed to make Edge an even less attractive offering or what?
It's like how they're adding the useless copilot key to every single laptop that ever is released
they are desperate for someone to use their spyware filled Browser with AI shoved down your throat
Why the fuck would I want a browser with AI?
This could be asked of a thousand million other products in the past three years.
But hey, here I am replying to this comment from my AI powered pants zipper, so...
Oh neat how’s that? I’m using my buttplug. Really wish it had WiFi. The cat 6 cable can get limiting
It has its ups and downs
That's a safety tether.
Fuck outlook, the app is trash.
Nine works great for exchange servers, if you can't escape the Microsoft infrastructure altogether.

Looks like the new reviews say otherwise
I've been using it for 12+ years, and still do to this day. The only thing that changed is that you have to use the Microsoft authenticator app to log on.
Oh, that's not too bad. I'm stuck using that for a bunch of things
"recommended by microsoft" kills me.
I also recommend myself.
GPT-4 “powered” lol
I don’t know what fucking idiot they think is going to say to themselves “well fuck if Microsoft recommends it that’s the way we go!”
Have you not been paying attention for the past 50 years?
I think the average user sees recommended and just goes with it.
That’s fucking nuts.
Tbh a lot of users might just click without even reading what this message says.
Can't wait for GPT in my email client, so that it falls for phishing schemes when I'm relaxing.
I can tell you aren't using outlook
Yeah the place I work implemented the "enterprise version" of outlook with their garbage AI built in.
I've never used the AI once, and if they don't give a shit about company data that's fine by me
I'd take that in a heartbeat. I want my meetings and emails summarised, minutes written for me.
That's the kind of daily crap I don't want to have to do myself.
Oh boy, a ChatGPT powered browser! Maybe it can hallucinate what I bookmarked and lose or leak all my passwords ☺️
Autofilling all URLs to something completely different could be a fun way to browse
I'm surprised it gives you the choice instead of the usual Microsoft nag: Set Default or Later.
It's not even bad they're just annoying. Currently the only one I'd use is firefox. It has all the features without the bad things so far. Opera has many ads and also ai and a crypto wallet so i'm going with firefox...
This is a shitshow. I use open source mobile office suite and Outlook continually refuses to open PDF or other documents as nothing is installed, so would I like to use their bag of shit instead.
install linksheet nightly
Just had a look. Much appreciated, thanks mate.
Quick question, what suite are you using on mobile? Haven't managed to find mutch open source stuff to edit word documents.
I use CollabraOffice and also muPDF. Collabra is great for viewing and some minor work, but I try to use libreoffice on my laptop running Debian for real productivity.
I use onlyoffice :)
God ChatGPT sucks so much.
surely you get this only if you have edge already installed?
if you just stop edging on your device, wouldn't this pop-up never appear?
Confirming, you get this even if you don't have Edge installed. It will take you to the store page.
No, I don't have edge and don't want it.
Lots of apps override the default behaviour when opening links and ask you to use a specific browser. I actually do use Edge and have been asked if I wanted to use Chrome.
ROFL This level of desperation goes to show how shit the actual experience of using Edge truly is. It wasn't bad, before they injected Edge with AI bullshit and bloated it with other trash.
It's not any worse than Chrome, which isn't saying much. Firefox is still the best user friendly browser, IMO.
