Gaming Copilot – which provides recommendations, help, insights and more

So "AI powered" ads? Integrated into gaming? Players caring about performance will be so happy about that ...

Glad I'm not using any of their crap.

You will use Copilot and you will ~~like it~~ have no recourse.

Yep. Pump the numbers and try to retroactively justify the absurd spending on it all. Everyone who accidentally opens it is another tick up for the user numbers.

I'm sure they also have some stats based on installs that this will spruce up too.

So all your data can be uploaded and used to train copilot. They are desperate for data and usecases.
