"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

MS is losing the school market, They're kicking the home market out. Once all these home users get used to alternative OS's what makes them thing businesses won't follow suit to save money?
Using AI it the workplace is widely accepted because it's a cheap way to have sub-par workers do work above their pay grade (to an extent). The workers give just what they need to the AI and it gives a return on investment (on paper). When the OS is tracking all that, it's seeing everything. All these companies that think they have secret sauce will be apprehensive. I'm already seeing waffling on meeting note takers.
That's not a now problem.
Leadership is incentivized for immediate returns, not long term strategic sustainability. The current generation of workers is pretty entrenched in Windows, and the next generation that grows up without Windows is years away.
