Well, YEAH.

Did people really expect anything different?

Ashapilot? Or satyapilot

From a casual Windows user what exactly would I need AI to do ?

Quick file search. This already keeps getting more fucked with each Window iteration.
Advanced troubleshoot. 100% won't fix the problem and you will go to forums or reddit for the solution anyway.
Photo Edit. I guess casual people would love a simple tool that could fix photos.

None of that I bet would justify the amount of power Co-Pilot would consume/steal and slow your system.
Make a separate Grandma Co-Pilot version if you have to for computer illiterate.

Microsoft says Windows 11 changes are "directly influenced" by users

During a recent meetup with Windows Insiders in Seattle, the company said future updates are being "really directly influenced" by user feedback, with Windows chief Pavan Davuluri adding that Microsoft plans to "double down" on that effort throughout 2026.

Plenty of folks are playing games on Linux so not sure what your point is here

My point is that you always have to option to leave. People bitch about Windows but stay on the platform.

Get a hobby you weirdo lol.

How is that comment useful to anything. Get in the debate or gtfo.

 

[Hudo]

I seriously wonder whether Nutella is actually using Windows on his work PC.

Nah, I've no interest in debating platform merits with a simpleton. Look at your post, it was meant to do nothing more than arouse ire. You've no interest in debate, just rabble rousing and finger pointing, such is why I framed my comment the why I did, for you see,
"get a hobby you weirdo",
with a playful lol punctuation there, is a far kinder alternative to saying
"wow, what a rude dick you're being, maybe try not being such a rude dick?"
but considering how you responded I'm kinda wishing I went with the latter option to show you the respect you clearly deserve.

Have a great day Internet shit kicker, hopefully today's shit stirring will allow you to feel the strength from online interactions that you will most certainly never feel in real life.

People do leave. I'm posting from my daily driver PC running cachyOS right now. Steam Deck has been a thing for a while. Steam OS will probably release to the general public alongside Steam Machine this year. So your assumption that people "stay on the platform" isn't quite accurate at all. Interesting that you phrase those who do as being Microsoft's "bitch" though.

 

[nikos]

You can easily completely disable it on your own.

 

[No Banana]

It's like copilot entered Microsoft's witness protection program

 

[yurinka]

Sure, Colipot isn't the same than Copilot

He's just another Internet dweller who thinks combativeness is a substitute for a personality. Not even worth thinking about.

Your logic make no sense. People who bitch about Microsoft are still on Windows. People who moved on have no reason to complain. But they far from being the majority.

No, you just don't get what I'm trying to say, but we are going in circles so no point continuing.

But yet you do debate. You should stop projecting yourself in others. There's tons of winning people like you, always playing the victim and when you point out it's might you own fault. You fall into weak insults and play the victim once again once they get the response to grow up.

Github copilot is another league of its own. I can see excel going to be a gamechanger just needs better integration

All I'm saying is that almost everyone think Windows is shit. But yet they still have 92% gaming PC platform share. Like you said, there's cachyOS and SteamOS now a day. At what point we can put the fault on the gamer for not doing the switch ? If you despise Windows but still stick to it, you deserve being Microsoft little bitch.

Microsoft didn't gain their PC OS monopoly due to quality. Quite the opposite, most of the OSes they released were terrible.
They always played dirty and although they got sued a lot of times, by many countries, it was still worth it to create the current monopoly, as the fines were mere slaps on the wrist in comparison.
And whenever they had to compete on a more even playing field, they lost most of the time by a huge margin. A few examples are the Zune, Bing, Groove, Edge, Kin, Windows Phone and Lumia, Surface, etc.

I recall many years ago not being able to buy hard drives from a whoelsaler without also purchasing Windows licenses. Microsoft made deals a multiple levels to protect their monopoly. Of course, this is back when Bill Gates was running things. We all know what an honest, upstanding person he turned out to be. /s

Also, Apple is the only manufacturer projecting higher laptop sales this year. Everyone else is down. Not to mention amount of people for whom an iPad or Android tablet or Chromebook is "good enough".

No windows on Macs. And yeah, I think we will see Linux expand a bit as well.

MS is playing with fire I feel. You can also look at governments around the world getting rid of Windows.

That's pretty interesting although I do wonder if even that will be enough for MS to get a clue. On a personal level, I get laptops from my brother and had been using Windows 10 up until a recent replacement. I refused to upgrade previously and I'm glad I held off because now that I am using Windows 11 - it's been a mostly unpleasant experience, much worse than 10. I do what I can with removing bloat and changing settings, but it's like customer preference and experience don't even factor a little bit into this product.

Microsoft is still Microsoft... news at 11

...And on second news

Fools will continue being fooled.
