Is this tech news or public relations? We already know they gone all in on AI bullshit.

Are we out of touch? No! It’s the users that are wrong!

  • Microsoft probably

They want to finally disappear from the market? That's good news!

Poor Windows. It got caught in the hands of middle and upper management who absolutely have no clue what they are trying to do. Last time I used Windows 11, it looked horrible with each app using different design language and tonnes of MSN stories, advertisements etc. Is that what they are calling AI? It didn't help with any of the task I needed to complete and was more annoying than anything.

I'm definitely not against AI and in fact I wish AI becomes much efficient so it can run on local machines. I can see it is useful in many areas like translation, video compression, accessibilty tools, code reviews, grammar check, writing etc. But shoving it everywhere makes me puke. It's waste of time, power, minerals, water and also investor money.

Get real Microsoft.
