A few days ago, Davuluri shared his excitement about it on his official X handle. He seemed very eager to reveal what the company has in mind at the upcoming Ignite event regarding the agentic OS plans.

Unfortunately for Microsoft and Davuluri, the response has been overwhelmingly negative, so much so that the comments on that X post have now been disabled.

Made me laugh. :)

Maybe stick to AM4 and processors for now that don't have AI feature? I have AM4, it works perfect and I haven't had to upgrade yet. I think there would be a way to disable all of the AI, like with app OOSU10 or tron. Second option would be to install Linux OS and use Wine for any Windows app and for anything buggy that wouldn't work well, using a vm for it.

Speaking of, there's VPNs or you could use PIHole to block Microsoft's telemetry and AI ips.

That game of cat and mouse would get very tiresome very fast and Microsoft would win in the end. Better to hope for new vwrsions of Tiny11 or one of those debloater scripts to disable the AI features entirely, but they'd probably be reinstated with every update. Maybe use a hook to re-run the script after every update? I don't even know if that's possible in Windows.

Thankfully I've been Microsoft free for years now so I don't have to know. Linux is a blessing.
