I spent 20 minutes trying to log in to Teams on my phone today and I just couldn’t. After my username and password, it would redirect to Microsoft Authenticator, then ask me to create a passkey for some reason, show a loader, and then bug out and restart the flow in an infinite loop.

I’m being told we are in the incredible age of fully automated AI programming and yet Microsoft can’t even get login to work.

We are in the age of fully automated AI programming, and that's the expected outcome. (.. is what I would say if this wasn't Microsoft's standard for the last 10 years)

> fully automated AI programming

they would like you to use copilot, so it all checks out, have you installed it on your phone yet? /s

Well, what's the sarcasm?

If someone already has MS Teams installed, and their Authenticator App, there is no compelling reason to not install Copilot. Unless the system permissions they ask differ substantially, let's say.

Either you trust MS or you better have nothing installed from them on your (personal) devices at all. No?
