Still have no idea what “The Cloud” is 😅

it’s probably time HP starts looking into this “A-I” stuff, they’re going to need to be up on it in 4 or 5 years

This just in, HP will remove perfectly good documentation for products they no longer support. This seems very anti-consumer

Remember when this video used to be satire? It was supposed to be an over the top joke. Now this is just literally how AI works.

Damnit this was even more work shareable than ever, right until the body functions.

It's like they know nothing about computers. I bet Jen from The IT Crowd is spearheading the effort!

Oh dear. First sentence: "…is known for their …" `if you can't count up to two, do you expect me to believe your report?

Let's have a thought for the software interns who will have to do the actual work.

Woah, this was 13 years ago and he just casually predicted 5G, it's like a time conspiracy prediction thing, I wonder if they knew about flat earth back then too?

Another Onion that's still relevant! But why am I only just seeing it?

achievability of ''1000'' sounds way more credible than ''million'' and more optimal than ''100''… great number 👍👍

The way tech companies talked about the cloud back in 2012 was so confusing that I questioned whether they were literally storing data in clouds in the sky.

I'm just gonna say it. Gary Klinman and that HP letter sound… distressingly similar to certain current "politicians".
Same exact vague statements offering nothing substantial and clearly bullshitting through every bit of it.

the cloud works by adding a corporate branded logo and intuitive interface for magnet link torrents that encourage uploading from the stored file to someone else (seeding) and downloading a copy from someone else's stored file to your location (peering). originally for R rated movies, parental advisory music, and porn catalogues. chat is limited since it software dematerializes regularly, leading to unreliable functionality. torrent itself is anonymized ftp scraping, which runs on email account activated web url file hosting and hypertext transfer. which is an infant web aol era tech wonder. before that we had excel and word, but not enough schooling in math and writing to make use of them.

I just had a hell of a time cleaning the hp software off of a hp computer. It took 3 hours to uninstall McAfee. It took 8 to figure out how to uninstall all of the parts of hp support assistant. You have to reinstall it to uninstall it 💀

HP's cloud capacity was only 1000, but their new AI capacity is over 9000. Time flies, but Moore's law is still valid.

The cloud worked well, so clearly AI will too…
Right?

The same way every company now is "AI-powered" or "AI-first" – absolute bollocks designed to pump the stock price

I heard they are now also offering the "AL" everyone's talking where they got a guy named Ale who will chat with you on voice chat, or FAX if you will! Exciting!
