    Could they have made it look less like Midler vs Ford? "Midler was asked to sing a famous song of hers for the commercial and refused. Subsequently, the company hired a voice-imper…

    Ironically Microsoft is the one that's notoriously terrible at checking their "AI" products before releasing them. Besides the infamous Tay there was that apparently un-aligned Wiz…
