> Linux didn't win the way anyone expected. There was no dramatic moment where Ubuntu overtook Windows on the desktop. No press conference. No champagne.

For the average team, AI slows them down overall.

Told ya!

Uw kritische blik op dit rapport is welkom. De gepresenteerde conclusie is dat het allemaal snor zit. Maar ik zie ook zorgwekkende zinnetjes over wat men niet heeft kunnen onderzoeken. En een poging van de nieuwe werkplek om verbinding te leggen met Mercedes Benz (?!).
