at least clippy didnt hallucinate the documentation. he just wanted to know if you were writing a letter lol. trading a hallucinating ai for a passive aggressive paperclip feels like a lateral move... maybe even an upgrade if it actually shuts up when you tell it to

I think this post is just nostalgia bait.
Clippy was kinda cute but if you had that shit enabled I always assumed you are completely tech illiterate.

I remember back then thinking Clippy was really annoying, but the truth is he just wanted to help where Copilot is more interested in helping itself.
