AI bad true, but there's no evidence this update did anything bad and ssd/hdd manufacturers and Microsoft have all come out after testing and said as much.

Negative placebo and gossip. Drives fail all the time, people (and media/youtubers for clickbait) see the headlines and blame the update.

People witch hunting Phison too.

Isn’t it funny how news bias bubbles work? The articles about the update causing SSD failures were everywhere on Lemmy. But after thousands of hours of testing from Microsoft, Phison, and various journalism outlets, the issue isn’t replicable. But I haven’t seen that reported on here at all because it doesn’t make Microsoft look bad.

Microsoft is plenty bad, we don’t need to massage data to make them seem even worse.

(To be fair I wasn’t on Lemmy much this weekend, it’s possible I just missed this.)

I love jay as a creator but he gets things wrong on occasion. Example: he recently made a video suggesting that everyone running nvidia on windows use software to force rebar on globally, which is KNOWN to break games or cause performance issues (which is why it isn't enabled globally in the first place.) At the end of the day he is still a creator driven by the algorithm and metrics for his livelihood so you gotta take what he says with a grain of salt.
