I am surprised MS went through with publishing this. I guess their partnership with the Carnegie Mellon University meant that hiding this report wasn't a viable option.
- MS Research publish all sortsa shit that might not go down well with the company, but they do hire some seriously smart people so keeping 'em sweet is better than having them jump to Google

Not if you get drunk and spend the night arguing with it
- I hope you saved a log.

Research seems to have been based on a survey of memories of using AI.
Not an experiment.
- Anything is a ~~dildo~~ experiment if you’re brave enough.
