There's even rumours that the next version of Windows is going to inject a bunch of AI buzzword stuff into the operating system. Like, how is that going to make the user experience any more intuitive? Sounds like you're just going to have to fight an overconfident ChatGPT wannabe that thinks it knows what you want to do better than you do, every time you try opening a program or saving a document.
This is what pisses me off about the whole endeavour. We can't even get a fucking search algo right any more, why the fuck do i want a machine blithely failing to do what it's told as it stumbles off a cliff.
It'll be like if they brought clippy back but only this time hes even more of an asshole and now he can fuck up your OS too.
Like, I know we all love to hate Microsoft here but can we stop with the random nonsense? That's not what's happening, at all.
these are not even rumors, windows copilot is an actual thing.
Yes, and it is absolutely nothing like OP described.
Windows Co-pilot just popped up on my Windows 11 machine. Its disclaimer said it could provide surprising results. I asked it what kind of surprising results I could expect, it responded that it wasn't comfortable talking about that subject and ended the conversation.
That's incredible. Certified "Directive #4" moment.
I'm so glad I use Linux at home and Mac at work.
I agree that It's going to be every bit as awful as you say, but if it brings back Clippy, I'm down for it.
