The AI is doing the code reviews and writing the unit tests now, too. It's slop all the way down...

But Microsoft doesn't really care that much about the Windows side of the business anymore. The real money is in cloud computing now, with Microsoft Azure being responsible for the lion's share of their revenue. And who's the biggest customer of Azure? Guess what, it's the AI slop factories! So writing 30% of their code with AI and letting their OS fall to ruin as a result doesn't really matter to their bottom line, so long as companies like OpenAI continue to pay them dump trucks full of money for their computing services. The more MS uses AI, the more hype AI generates, and the whole Ponzi scheme gets to keep on going.
