#Microsoft sent an email to everyone saying they're listening to people now and they will definitely not pushing AI to everything anymore.
Also Microsoft enabled #github to collect all your "inputs, outputs and associated context to train and improve AI models". This new tickbox is enabled by default, even if you explicitly disabled Copilot before.
Actions speak louder than words.
You can disable the option at https://github.com/settings/copilot/features
Sebastian "Kebu" Teir has just released his latest album, Urban Skies.

If anyone is hiring or knows of someone who is hiring remotely in the UK or locally in NI for an astrophysics PhD who is cracking with Python, knows a bit of SQL and cloud computing, is experienced in both data analysis and software development, and is ALSO uncannily quick to learn new things, then hit me up.
ETA: Just to be clear: I'm not looking for astrophysics jobs. My experience in astro was largely in big data wrangling and software dev so that's what I'm after now!
