Why does Microsoft always create so many ugly, confusing, and ridiculous product names? The worst of them all is ".Net" (which is really confusing).

Why does Microsoft always create so many ugly, confusing, and ridiculous product names? The worst of them all is ".Net" (which is really confusing).

When OpenAI released their successor to GPT-4, they called it GPT-4o. Their next model after that was called o1.

And when Anthropic released the successor to Claude 3.5 Sonnet, they called it…

Claude 3.5 Sonnet.

What do you think of Andrew Tate?

It’s not just Microsoft. Look at the way top AI companies these days name their foundation models.

They didn’t even bother to change the name. What the fuck, guys.

When Google released the next version of Gemini 1.5 Pro, they called it Gemini 1.5 Pro-002 (I wish I was joking, but I’m not).

Why are the democrats keep insisting that there are more than two genders?

But I mean, Microsoft was a pioneer in this field and is still the undisputed king of bad naming.

Keep in mind, though, there are only two hard problems in software: Cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors.
