How's your IBM mainframe doing, these days? Wait, you use Watson, right? IBM still exists. They're the perfect example of how far a corporate behemoth can keep rolling after it effectively dies.

Are they though? Microsoft is still in the eating paste phase of their journey. Copilot was a huge flop.
> Copilot was a huge flop _Which_ copilot? Lots of big businesses are buying github copilot for their devs, I wouldn't call it a flop by any stretch.
They didn't learn with CoPilot having no adoption.
They didn't learn with Windows 11 being completely useless
They didn't learn with GitHub having security breach left and right
Some companies never learn I guess.

They'll probably start selling _Microsoft Copilot AI Defender_ or something similar?
