    Assclown “journalism”

    Representatives for OpenAI, Apple, and Microsoft did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours.

    They didn’t immediately respond outside working hours? Maybe work life balance. Fuck you Beatrice Nolan. Dipshit.

      I like dunking on poor journalism as much as the next guy but Microsoft isn’t just some local office in Redmond. They’re a giant international megacorp with 200k+ employees. Their PR is 24/7. If they didn’t respond immediately, it means they don’t care to.

        That’s fine but then the correct term is that Microsoft has not yet replied to our request for comment. That’s enough without editorializing your own pseudo-importance.

      If your organisation is big enough to have a press office of more than 4 or 5 people, you will usually have an on-call rota.
