Hmm, it does line up with that from my perspective too.

It's just a different way to say "you're the product, not the customer" if you look at the statement from a neutral perspective - the whale being the actual customer, who changes all the time depending on what Microsoft MBAs think might have the highest potential value they can extract.

Who's the "whale" in this context? Windows users who subscribe to copilot? Enterprise? Advertisers?
