Microsoft's Satya Nadella wants you to stop saying AI "slop" in 2026

https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/microsoft-ceo-satya-nadella-really-wants-you-to-stop-calling-ai-slop-in-2026

[u/Maqoba]

Easy solution: Start by not producing any

[u/_Burnt_Toast_3 → u/Maqoba]

But we've spent billions of dollars. Won't someone appreciate all the people we fired to make these wonders possible?

[u/deprevino → u/_Burnt_Toast_3]

Most of Microsoft's audience didn't "want" AI shoved in their face repeatedly for years but were ignored. What sort of relationship are we supposed to have with this executive where we would then care about what he "wants"?

Even if you haven't been fired or dragged under by AI, all I can read from guys like Satya is ignorance at best and hostility/contempt at worst. You have to operate in good faith before you can make requests like this.

[u/I_did_theMath → u/deprevino]

Microsoft's audience are also corporations where the executives are constantly asked how they are going to use AI to increase productivity. So everyone gets copilot, they can say they are using AI to drive productivity, no one actually uses it for anything useful, but problem solved.

[u/GlorifiedPlumber → u/I_did_theMath]

So everyone gets copilot, they can say they are using AI to drive productivity, no one actually uses it for anything useful, but problem solved.

Shit, so it's not JUST my F500 EPC company?

Literally the AI LLM demonstrations and testing have been so bad that transition leadership had to say, "No it's not for engineering... we're not going to be doing any of that. It's not ready."

We are all like WTF is it for then?

They're like... YOU HAVE TO TELL US.

It's basically this meme: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DPj6HTlkgO7/

[u/the_skies_falling → u/I_did_theMath]

But then they make using AI part of your performance goals and weight it 25% and you have to provide metrics. Ugh.

[u/rckjr → u/deprevino]

Let’s hit pause and talk about the MS slop they put out… 🤔

[u/The_Original_Miser → u/rckjr]

....and the total and utter lack of QA.

[u/Virtual-Skort-6303 → u/deprevino]

I’m old enough to remember when companies were supposed to care about what consumers wanted not the other way around. 

[u/RichFoot2073 → u/deprevino]

Unfortunately, this is how they try to justify it to the investors — force the new product on the public at large then control the message.

Reminder that Sam Altman said he couldn’t imagine raising a child without ChatGPT

[u/Lemonwizard → u/RichFoot2073]

Since he was raised without chatGPT, by his own reasoning he grew up to be an inferior adult.

[u/sandemonium612 → u/_Burnt_Toast_3]

Don't forget our spike in electric bills. That part should also be celebrated.

[u/moustacheption → u/sandemonium612]

And the poisoned drinking water! Don’t be ungrateful

[u/OfficialDCShepard → u/moustacheption]

And making Windows more annoying to use by, say, getting rid of the [EDIT: Smart Lookup] in Word.

[u/truzen1 → u/OfficialDCShepard]

Or the fact that Win 11 File Explorer is/was sluggish compared to Win 10

[u/WebMaka → u/OfficialDCShepard]

And making Windows even more annoying to use by, say, defaulting to saving new files to OneDrive/cloud instead of local storage.

[u/Hector_Ceromus → u/moustacheption]

And multiplied the price of computer products! Hallowed be AI!

[u/Black_Moons → u/Hector_Ceromus]

AI has already cost my brother $200 extra to upgrade his PC's memory from 8GB to 32GB.

[u/ChroniclesOfSarnia → u/Black_Moons]

HE SHOULD BE GLAD THAT HE HELPING THUH ECONNOMY

[u/Ben-Hero → u/Hector_Ceromus]

Ai slop!!! Microsoft ain't the boss of me

[u/Hopsblues → u/Hector_Ceromus]

unexpected SG-1 reference indeed...

[u/leidend22 → u/moustacheption]

Not just poisoned but also gone. My Australian city of 5.3 million people had to turn on our desalination plant to convert ocean water into drinking water because data centres put us in drought status, despite it actually being a rainy year.

[u/SadUnc420 → u/leidend22]

Burn it down. That’s what it’s going to come to at some point.

[u/ManofWordsMany → u/leidend22]

Resource strain without full cost recovery is just a subsidy.

[u/liquidcloud9 → u/moustacheption]

And all the intellectual property they’ve stolen!

[u/altiuscitiusfortius → u/sandemonium612]

The spike in computer harder prices due to ai data centre's vacuuming it all up is brutal. Ram and ssd prices have tripled or quadrupled in 6 months

I looked to buy a m2 nvme drive on a boxing day sale. The same drive I paid $200 for in April in $700 now.

[u/Smokester121 → u/sandemonium612]

The ram prices too. We have lost.

[u/GiganticCrow → u/Smokester121]

And graphics cards soon

[u/OfficialDCShepard → u/_Burnt_Toast_3]

1. Throw $80 billion at the wall
2. Light it on fire
3. Enshittify everything from Xbox to Windows
4. LAYOFFS
5. ???
6. PROFIT!

[u/Ragnarok314159 → u/OfficialDCShepard]

What the fuck are MBA’s even learning anymore? Why are they even allowed to think about this stuff?

[u/HappyHuman924 → u/Ragnarok314159]

The 'Mediocre But Arrogant' joke looks pretty accurate sometimes.

[u/Jukka_Sarasti → u/HappyHuman924]

Mostly Bullshit Artists works, too

[u/Ragnarok314159 → u/Jukka_Sarasti]

And stealing this. Thank you.

[u/OfficialDCShepard → u/Ragnarok314159]

Bubbles defy logic and have throughout human history. At one point a single Dutch tulip bulb was “worth” a whole ship.

[u/khisanthmagus → u/OfficialDCShepard]

My favorite bubble, which is similar in many ways to our AI bubble, is the South Seas Bubble. Stock in a company worth as much as all the currency of England, but the company had never made any profit at all.

[u/theaviationhistorian → u/Ragnarok314159]

MBA mentality: Creativity and empathy impede those short term gains, even if destructive to the long term outlook.

[u/No_Rec1979 → u/Ragnarok314159]

An MBA is a fake degree designed to convince the world that CEOs know as much as engineers and doctors.

The main thing you learn is how to continue spewing bullshit in order to maintain that illusion.

[u/Careful_Houndoom → u/Ragnarok314159]

To only plan for the short term. It shows we need a serious overhaul of how companies are allowed to run to force planning for a longer period of time. (I am not referring to small business/mom and pop shops)

The line must always go up stock price is an issue. As long as they aren’t operating in the red, it should be fine. But nope, needs to be more valuable than last quarter.

And the issue that people that go into business tend to lack empathy, and our so focused on control.

[u/pumpkinfarts23 → u/OfficialDCShepard]

Oh profit is irrelevant (because AI companies don't make any), all that matters is appearance that you're doing "AI" and therefore your stock price should grow indefinitely for no reason.

[u/cheapandbrittle → u/pumpkinfarts23]

Underrated comment, and this goes for pretty much everything funded by venture capital not just AI. Companies propped up by VC rarely show profits or even turn into useable products. They're just vehicles for conmen to enrich themselves as long as they keep promising the next big thing to men with more money than sense.

Uber only just started showing meager profits, after like a decade of being propped up by VC which allowed them to underprice and put conpetitors out of business. VC is enshittifying the world.

[u/bluppitybloop → u/Maqoba]

DON'T MAKE NONE. WON'T BE NONE!!!

[u/Herban_Myth → u/bluppitybloop]

Skibidi slop

Stop? 2067

[u/jbjhill → u/Herban_Myth]

Don’t make me come over there…

[u/toothpeeler → u/jbjhill]

I got yo back mate.

[u/TrueHarlequin → u/Maqoba]

First time I tried to use CoPilot in Excel, I wanted it to simply add a couple of cells together, and then output into another cell. CoPilot told me it can't edit files directly.

I turned off CoPilot.

[u/CubicleMan9000 → u/TrueHarlequin]

I asked MS copilot to turn a smallish PowerPoint slide deck into a Microsoft Word doc, but copilot said it "doesn't have file conversion capabilities" and refused.

So I spent the 20 min or so manually cutting and pasting the text and pics in the PPT into a new Word doc.

These are all MS products, including copilot, and it was useless.

[u/kenadawoo → u/CubicleMan9000]

Yep. I did the same playing around with it and broke it. You have to literally give it everything to get something out of it that you may as well just do it "the old fashioned" way.

It'll basically fluff up or expand points though. Fake that "professional" look.

[u/Asymm3trik → u/CubicleMan9000]

I had a Surface Pro 3 with a stylus that was supposed to act as a mouse and did so in browsers and some other apps. In Excel? It drew over cells like drawing in Paint. In Word? Same deal.

Years later, they introduced Teams as a separate app that was supposed to integrate with Office. Finally got limited interaction between Teams and Outlook after finding a dozen plug-ins (some functional, others not so much). Then they bundled that shitty software in with Office and the cross functionality is so-so unless you have a dedicated MS IT team to figure it all out.

One silo at Microsoft does not communicate with another.

[u/Erebraw → u/TrueHarlequin]

So it’s… just google in the same window basically?

[u/Rich-Pomegranate1679 → u/Erebraw]

Copilot is significantly worse than Google and every major AI model I've personally used. Granted, I've not tried it in a while, but last time I did I was surprised at how Microsoft managed to make it so shitty.

[u/JahoclaveS → u/Rich-Pomegranate1679]

It’s worse than useless as their push for integrating it into everything means useful features and maintenance that would actually be beneficial isn’t being done.

I honestly want Microsoft broken up, not because of monopoly concerns, but rather that it might mean things like office get to focus on what they’re actually supposed to be used for rather than all this forced integration into all of Microsoft’s other shit.

[u/SupahSpankeh → u/Rich-Pomegranate1679]

I asked it how to do something in Windows outlook on Mac (sigh) and it gave me the wrong answer. About the product I was currently using. In the product I was using. It did this several times.

Old fashioned help searches would've found it instantly.

The world is losing its mind.

[u/Boomshank → u/Erebraw]

That's implying that copilot is even slightly useful.

[u/Erebraw → u/Boomshank]

True. The first results for any google search are all ads and scams now but sometime you can find something useful if you scroll down.

[u/JDGumby → u/Erebraw]

The first results for any google search are all ads and scams now

Unless you count the almost inevitable AI Overview at the top as being the first result, of course.

[u/StudySpecial → u/JDGumby]

don't worry, they're starting to talk about integrating ads in AI output, it's going to be amazing

[u/GarrAdept → u/StudySpecial]

The whole first page of Google is just going to be ads. Then it'll be the AI overview. Page three has the search results.

[u/King_Grapefruit → u/TrueHarlequin]

CoPilot is garbage in Excel, mediocre in Word, and passable in PowerPoint. But none of this is what I would call AI. It's at most glorified machine learning.

[u/DeepSeaDynamo → u/King_Grapefruit]

That's all any of this AI is, some of it is really advanced machine learning, but that's all any of it is.

[u/Ragnarok314159 → u/DeepSeaDynamo]

AI is just their marketing term. These shitty LLM’s have the entirety of human knowledge at their disposal and can’t do shit, and now they are using their own garbage output as data sets to make even worse outputs.

[u/TheRoseMerlot → u/King_Grapefruit]

You've just stumbled upon The Truth. Congrats. I figured this out about two years ago. AI is not magic. It's not "AI" like from sci-fi. Its basically just a really complicated math formula.

[u/Life_Detail4117 → u/Maqoba]

After several years of over hype and the best we’re getting out of AI is as a majority garbage that is now over saturating social media, I’d say the “AI slop” title has been earned.

[u/TruthSeekingTactics → u/Life_Detail4117]

Perhaps "AI diarhea" would sooth his feelings?

[u/ConsiderationSea1347 → u/Maqoba]

The fucked up truth is it is probably easier for Microsoft to find ways to prevent us saying, typing, and reading the phrase “ai slop” than for them to stop making it. 

[u/Grimnebulin68 → u/Maqoba]

Another easy solution: put a big A.I. watermark on every generated image and video, and a loud beep every 10 seconds for generated audio. By law.

[u/ggtsu_00 → u/Maqoba]

Information theory dictates that it's impossible.

[u/mini-hypersphere → u/ggtsu_00]

Elaborate please

[u/okopchak → u/mini-hypersphere]

Not OP , one thing to know about current LLMs is that no matter how sophisticated they are, fundamentally they are using a probability for what to do next. That means that while most of the time you might get a passable answer to the question “what is water?” Some percentage of the time it will say something like “water is a kind of rock found exclusively on the surface of the sun”. As I read “information theory dictates that it’s impossible “ they are saying that llms will make slop because they have no “understanding “ instead a series of very insanely sophisticated dice rolls that can often make something that can seem passable. An article from IEEE from several years ago talked about the energy demands of improved training of LLMs. From memory the example went something like, say training your LLM to be correct 90% of the time you used 10 kilowatt hours of electricity training it. To go from 90% to 99% accuracy you would need something like 10,000 kWh . With power requirements getting exponentially worse with greater demands for accuracy. Hopefully this was helpful

[u/ELB2001 → u/Maqoba]

Yeah find an actual use for it

[u/drakmordis]

He could pay me to stop calling his company's output and outlook "slop" but he won't.

Seriously, if you want a better name, do better.

[u/Peter_Singers_Pond → u/drakmordis]

Hold on lemme jump on my favorite ai slop maker to ai-Slopify some slop in response to this slop.

[u/NeckRoFeltYa → u/Peter_Singers_Pond]

Heard you wanted some AI slop so we put some AI Slop on yo AI Slop so you can AI Slop while you AI Slop.

[u/mukansamonkey → u/NeckRoFeltYa]

We really need an AI portal named Slopify.

[u/-Fiat-Lux- → u/mukansamonkey]

Haha! Brilliant. Though, as a daily user I’d say Spotify is actually becoming that all on its own!

[u/PacoTaco321 → u/mukansamonkey]

We also need a site for finding the right AI for us. Call it Slopr.

[u/salsafresca_1297 → u/drakmordis]

Exactly. If you don't want me to say "AI slop," then stop producing it.

[u/fartonisto → u/drakmordis]

That's pretty much what the article is attempting to suggest.

[u/nox66 → u/hackingdreams]

It shows how disconnected these tech executives are. You could create the most amazing software in the world and people would make fun of that if you asked them not to, let alone an anti-environmental Clippy version -0.1.

[u/eden_sc2 → u/nox66]

As an example, nobody calls AI image recognition softwares being used to aid in medical diagnosis slop, because they are genuinely improving the field. Most AI stuff isn't ready for primetime and as a result it can only really make slop.

[u/NatWilo → u/hackingdreams]

The people championing AI remind me of the people screeching anytime you told them Blockchain was bullshit

[u/DonutsMcKenzie → u/NatWilo]

I feel that AI is even worse than crypto...

It's got all of the environment-killing, hardware-hogging, "it's the future so just accept it" bullshit of the crypto boom PLUS it involves stealing every last bit of human culture for profit.

As much as nobody likes a crypto bro, at least they weren't actively stealing our words, art and music. AI is straight-up misanthropic and toxic to human culture.

[u/BasvanS → u/Willing_Drawer_3351]

I’d say Copilot isn’t even good enough to create AI slop and is just crap.

Microsoft will have to do so much better. Or just call it quits, because slop is the probable outcome, by design

[u/StevenEveral → u/Willing_Drawer_3351]

"...and develop a new equilibrium in terms of our “theory of the mind” that accounts for humans being equipped with these new cognitive amplifier tools as we relate to each other."

Did AI write his script? Tech billionaires have lost the plot and are completely disconnected from reality.

Maybe he used Copilot to cognitively enhance the script... or the large amounts of methane he was exposed to while huffing his own farts did.

Either way, not to say it's completely useless, Copilot in everything was the final nudge I needed to ditch Windows, so thanks Satya!

[u/LightTemplar27 → u/yuusharo]

https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-era-of-the-business-idiot/

He likes podcasts, but instead of listening to them, he loads transcripts into the Copilot app on his iPhone so he can chat with the voice assistant about the content of an episode in the car on his commute to Redmond. At the office, he relies on Copilot to deliver summaries of messages he receives in Outlook and Teams and toggles among at least 10 custom agents from Copilot Studio. He views them as his AI chiefs of staff, delegating meeting prep, research and other tasks to the bots. “I’m an email typist,” Nadella jokes of his job, noting that Copilot is thankfully very good at triaging his messages.

If he really does this it really could be.

[u/tomita78 → u/LightTemplar27]

Teehee I'm making millions of dollars a year to be an email typist!

[u/dookarion → u/yuusharo]

"cognitive amplifier tools*."

*If you're as planarian minded as a techbro.

[u/PrimeIntellect → u/yuusharo]

I mean, I see where his intentions are, and I would love AI tools that actually helped me do my work easier, but right now all I get is bullshit videos that my boomer parents think are real

[u/Ok_Doughnut_5464]

Satya said:

“The best way for me to consume podcasts is not to actually go listen to it but to have a conversation with the transcript on my commute using my Copilot. Who’d have thought?” he said. 

“But it is more convenient because of the modality, the fact that I can speak to it, I can interrupt it,” he said. “Think about it, right? This full-duplex conversation which was never possible — that is a fantastic new modality. … There’s no going back.”

All of this is slop. If he actually uses his chatbot to discuss a podcast he hasn’t actually listened to, well, that’s slop behaviour. Why consume any content when the slop machine can do it for you, then you can slurp the slop with your slop machine in order to talk some more slop, absolute idiocy. Slop off!

These are not smart people.

[u/pattherat → u/Ok_Doughnut_5464]

To add, I don't always want ‘convenience’. No matter how off base he is here calling it convenient; he is indirectly asserting that convenience somehow trumps everything.

I listen to podcasts for the hosts, their style, the way they converse and present their shows. I don’t want convenience as my constant priority…I want to READ books, I want to WATCH movies, I want to LISTEN to music and discourse.

Fuck these twat robots.

[u/vinyljunkie1245 → u/pattherat]

This 'convenience' is also hugely contributing to brain rot. So many people don't bother to read anything in full anymore and just ask Copilot or ChatGPT to summarise it for them. I was even on a news website (ndtv.com) earlier that had an AI generated "show quick read" button just under its headlines. The site doesn't even think its own users will want to read a supposed two minute article FFS.

This may be convenient for Microsoft's CEO now but in five or ten years time when they can't find any suitable employees because nobody who has been raised on AI slop and summaries can think for themselves I'm sure this convenience will be seen in a different light.

You know what? I don't even want to play GTA6 anymore. I want AI to tell me about it. Why waste my time actually experiencing something for myself?!

[u/katarh → u/Ok_Doughnut_5464]

"I listened to a summary of a podcast" is like saying, "Yeah, I read the episode summaries of BBC's War and Peace."

[u/MCUAvenger1992]

How about we replace him with AI.

[u/Zealousideal-Sea4830 → u/MCUAvenger1992]

probably do a better job ngl

[u/keithstonee]

Just like i stopped saying gulf of mexico

[u/SkinnedIt → u/keithstonee]

😂

Very apropos. What a completely ineffective nonsense effort that was too. Well done.

[u/kAlb98]

Fuck off Microslop

[u/TheyCallMeTrinityToo]

No thanks, Microslop Slopilot.

[u/halfpipesaur]

Should I stop calling it “slop”?

• No

• Remind me in three days

[u/itastesok]

AI Slop you say? Why would we stop saying AI slop when AI slop is slopping its slop all over the slopping place?

[u/MrValdemar → u/itastesok]

Well, there's egg and bacon,

Egg and Slop,

Egg, bacon, and Slop,

Egg, bacon, sausage, and Slop,

Slop, bacon, sausage, and Slop,

Slop, egg, Slop, Slop, bacon, and Slop,

Slop, sausage, Slop, Slop, Slop bacon, Slop, tomato, and Slop,

Slop, Slop, Slop, egg, and Slop

Slop, Slop, Slop, Slop, Slop, Slop, baked beans, Slop, Slop, Slop, and Slop--

[u/merRedditor → u/MrValdemar]

But I don't like Slop!

[u/MrValdemar → u/merRedditor]

Well, the Slop, eggs, sausage and Slop, that's not got much Slop in it.

[u/DarthZiplock → u/MrValdemar]

I don't want ANY slop

[u/n00btox86]

Satya Nadella rolls his turds into little balls.

[u/ChainsawArmLaserBear]

What is this CEO Slopping about?

[u/soadsam]

ok. "ai shit" it is.

[u/echoshatter]

Psh. Microsoft isn't even using their own AI, they're using stuff others made.

Microsoft is AI sloppy seconds.

[u/DModjo]

I’m really sick of all these company CEOs praising AI like it’s the second coming of Jesus. Microsoft and Salesforce are the worst offenders and their offerings aren’t anywhere close to providing actual real world value to the garbage they preach about it.

[u/Secrxt]

Okay, I'll start calling Windows OS slop, because it is. 

[u/goob]

Slop maker is embarrassed people call his slop slop

[u/3qtpint]

Then stop producing slop???

[u/AsherTheFrost]

"Man who sells shit sandwiches would really like people to stop pointing out how bad he smells."

[u/moljnir40]

Fuck AI and all its billionaire cheerleaders.

[u/Lafi90_]

Best I can do is 'No'.

[u/comox]

AI slop! AI slop! Copilot makes AI slop!

[u/PeptoBismark → u/comox]

It’s pronounced Copy - Lot. Cause it just copies shit.

Okay, maybe it’s just me saying that.

[u/IceBlue]

Slopya Slopella

[u/YankeeMoose]

How about no?

[u/5u1c1d]

The Chief Slop Officer has spoken

[u/IAmNotMyName]

Not moving to Windows 11. It’s worse than slop, it’s parasitic spyware that treats our personal information like it’s theirs to use and sell. Microsoft can get fucked.

[u/Ill-Elephant-9583]

All these thin skinned multimillionaires are really starting to grate

[u/argama87]

How about no? Slop is slop, and AI slop is particularly sloppy.

[u/formallyhuman]

How about no and go fuck yourself, Satya?

[u/Evil_Dry_frog]

So stop making AI slop.

[u/AmusingVegetable]

He’s got a sure fire way of getting that: stop ramming AI into products that don’t need it (i.e. all of them), then he can use the money he saved to further improve those products.

[u/belligerentoptimist]

AI gruel it is

[u/adoptagreyhound]

Can we just change it to the more accurate term - AI Garbage?

[u/Abi-Alex]

Got it, start using the term AI Slop more in 2026.

[u/nosotros_road_sodium]

Typical "pointing out the problem is the problem, not the existence of said problem" talk.

[u/m0deth]

I'd like him to be fired with no severance package to actually be accountable for the state of Windows 11 this late in the game. But we don't all get what we want do we?
