All that's required is enough mental gymnastics for someone to feel like they can call it a success. At no point is it actually required to be one.

You're probably correct: "Our developers a very happy with CoPilot. They now spend 50% of their time interacting with our AI offerings, either via VSCode, Github or Clippy."

No need to specify why they are interact with it, all engagement is good engagement.

By this measurement, a slower compiler is better than a faster one, because developers are using it for more of their time. Totally bonkers, Microsoft!

When your identity is tied to that being a success, you will find a way to make it so, because it feels much worse to have your identity challenged at a fundamental level than it does to have people grumpy with you for acting in a way that allows you to preserve your identity.

Most corporate BS comes down to this.
