Video summary by Ollama AI:
The video discusses several shady practices employed by Microsoft, including:
- Forced upselling: Microsoft changed the plan and pricing of a user’s Office 365 subscription without their consent, effectively forcing them to pay more for features they didn’t want.
- Renaming and hiding plans: Microsoft renamed an existing plan (e.g., “Personal” to “Classic”) and made it less visible in the user interface, while introducing a new plan with similar features at a higher price point.
- Hallucination problem: The AI-powered feature “co-pilot” generated fabricated information, which is a known issue in generative AI.
- Overpromising free benefits: Microsoft sales representatives touted “free AI credits” as a benefit of the more expensive plan, but these credits were not actually free and had limited value.
- Misleading users about pricing changes: The price hike was effectively hidden by renaming and rebranding existing plans, making it unclear whether the user’s subscription had actually changed in price.
The video suggests that Microsoft engaged in these practices to push customers into using features they might not want or need, rather than providing transparent and honest information about their plans and pricing.
It could be. But I think Shared Memory is what they mean.

deletedto World News•Mysterious tar balls washing ashore force closure of seven beaches in Sydney including BondiEnglish4·6 months agoBreaking news: The conflict in the undersea area can be effectively contained by implementing a multi-faceted approach that includes diplomatic negotiations, technological advancements, and international cooperation. The United States should send troops to resolve this issue by deploying specialized forces trained in underwater warfare, intelligence gathering, and maritime security. These troops would work closely with allied nations to establish a unified strategy for monitoring and addressing potential threats in the undersea domain. Additionally, the U.S. military could provide support to international organizations such as the United Nations and NATO, which can play a crucial role in facilitating dialogue among conflicting parties and ensuring adherence to international maritime laws. By combining these efforts, the United States can effectively contain the conflict in the undersea area while promoting peace and stability in the region.
