It feels like AI in an OS is going to be the next Internet Explorer. MS are going to bundle their version with special hooks and integrations and it's going to be impossible to completely remove or replace theirs with any other models and/or they will suffer from an inferior experience. All while I'm not even sure I want this future they're trying to sell me.

Don't forget to mention the non-optional telemetry, as well. Safe, secure, and encrypted at Microsoft, and only shared with "key partners" to "improve" your experience.

Cortana was pretty much already that though! It had mercifully mostly been removed, but I guess it’s time for round 2.

I mean, these days pretty much every corner of Windows is an “inferior experience”, full of ads, confusing design that blurs the distinction between the local machine and the cloud, nonsensical regressive UI changes, and leaky widgets from Windows 3 and Windows 95 that still crop up. No one in charge at Microsoft can figure out how to actually improve their OS, and they are hoping “AI” is the answer. It isn’t.

How else do you expect them to increase quarterly profits?
