Good job they specified it's a white dwarf. If it were a red dwarf, I'd blame it on Cat[^].

Whatever the f*** would be wrong with a simple statement such as "Copilot toolkit will allow you to use many different data sources, such as public websites, to build custom Large Language Models."???? Infoworld now run by CEOs, and thrives on 'technospeak'?
