With today’s update to Windows 11, Microsoft is bringing the power of Copilot and new AI-powered experiences to apps like Clipchamp, Paint, Photos, and more.
Most personal? Bullshit.
The recent updates that attempt to force backups to OneDrive is about as anti-personal as it gets. Not only does it try to get me to duplicate data, it potentially could move sensitive data “to the cloud”. Fuck. That.
I don’t need AI on my desktop. An OS should be the minimal required amount of software needed to install and run other apps (including AI garbage) if I choose to do so.
Don’t get me wrong! AI has had some significant improvements lately and that is a good thing. However, I firmly believe that Copilot will eventually go the way of Cortana when this current AI bubble slows down. AI/ML is here to stay, but trying to couple it with everything to see what sticks is annoying.
We are in the Clippy phase of AI right now. Tone it down a hair, MS.
