@indiecadets Hi!

Thanks for hosting #screenshotsaturday

A colleague and I have been working on this #pointandclick for about 2 years now.

We're lucky to have found an artist about 6 months ago who is willing to work with us on this, since we do this in our spare time.

I hope it shows :)

@Storch_i @PaulaPiechotta Sein Mansplaining macht ihn so sympathisch.

@GrueneMission @PaulaPiechotta @AtesGuerpinar Puh, "saved by the bell, bitch!"

@andikynast Vll. war es auch nur die Deutsche Glasfaser, so wie bei mir heute den ganzen Nachmittag.

@GovPressOffice I heard his health is also not that good.

@Manuel31816032 @Aintropy @Tatarigami_UA Yes, but Merz himself started a petition in the Bundestag for Taurus, which he knew would fail, just as a campaign move. So it's just fair to rub it in his face every now and then.

@mel__aura Nur die OP bei Chefarzt Dr. Brinkmann mussten wir absagen, dafür ist dann doch kein Geld mehr da.

@mel__aura Interessant 🤔

@GrueneMission @csu_bt Jetzt noch PV auf'm Dach und Söder fällt die Wurst aus'm Mund.

@GrueneMission @csu_bt Wasser predigen und Wein saufen.
Mich würde mal interessieren wieviele Wärmepumpen man findet wenn man mal bei hochrangigen CDUlern Razzien durchführen würde.

[olli @std_user]

@Peace_Freedom_U @MRatzow Ja es ist je nach Fall Heiratsschwindler oder Kleinkind.

[olli @std_user]

@MRatzow Ich war auch erstaunt wie stabil grok bei den hartnäckigen Nachfragen blieb. Sie blamieren sich einfach jedesmal. 🤷‍♂️

[olli @std_user]

@FranzFradie @MRatzow Rechte die ganze Zeit so:

„Krieg ist Frieden"
„Freiheit ist Sklaverei"

🤦‍♂️

@herr_ha_aus_be Ich bin von den Lichtschaltern und dem Heizkörper sehr angetan. "Für ein starkes und *innovatives* Europa!"

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.

$30 per seat per month.

$1.4 million annually.

I called it "digital transformation."

The board loved that phrase.

They approved it in eleven minutes.

No one asked what it would actually do.

Including me.

I told everyone it would "10x productivity."

That's not a real number.

But it sounds like one.

HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.

I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."

They stopped asking.

Three months later I checked the usage reports.

47 people had opened it.

12 had used it more than once.

One of them was me.

I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.

It took 45 seconds.

Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.

But I called it a "pilot success."

Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.

The CFO asked about ROI.

I showed him a graph.

The graph went up and to the right.

It measured "AI enablement."

I made that metric up.

He nodded approvingly.

We're "AI-enabled" now.

I don't know what that means.

But it's in our investor deck.

A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.

I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."

He asked what that meant.

I said "compliance."

He asked which compliance.

I said "all of them."

He looked skeptical.

I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."

He stopped asking questions.

Microsoft sent a case study team.

They wanted to feature us as a success story.

I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."

I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.

They didn't verify it.

They never do.

Now we're on Microsoft's website.

"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."

The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.

He got 3,000 likes.

He's never used Copilot.

None of the executives have.

We have an exemption.

"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."

I wrote that policy.

The licenses renew next month.

I'm requesting an expansion.

5,000 more seats.

We haven't used the first 4,000.

But this time we'll "drive adoption."

Adoption means mandatory training.

Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.

But completion will be tracked.

Completion is a metric.

Metrics go in dashboards.

Dashboards go in board presentations.

Board presentations get me promoted.

I'll be SVP by Q3.

I still don't know what Copilot does.

But I know what it's for.

It's for showing we're "investing in AI."

Investment means spending.

Spending means commitment.

Commitment means we're serious about the future.

The future is whatever I say it is.

As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
