Copilot Voice and Vision are now rolling out.

“We think we’re on the cusp of the next evolution, where AI happens not just in that chatbot and gets naturally integrated into the hundreds of millions of experiences that people use every day,” says Yusuf Mehdi, executive vice president and consumer chief marketing officer at Microsoft, in a briefing with The Verge. “The vision that we have is: let’s rewrite the entire operating system around AI, and build essentially what becomes truly the AI PC.”

    Microsoft:

    Your computer?

    No.

    Our computer.

    That you pay for the hardware for, that you pay regular rent to use in any way, that we use for anything we want, at any time, that must be always online to function.

    Innovation.

    EDIT:

    I’ve said it before, Windows is going to end up as a Corpo ONLY OS, for orgs and people who cannot escape their vendor lock-in trap.

    No sane, moderately knowledgeable/informed person would willingly choose to start with a home or business setup oriented around Windows, unless there truly is something that only works on Windows that they for some reason need and cannot use an alternative.

    Their entire business model is complex, opaque cost shifting and ‘gradual’ enshittification within their rent-based ecosystem lock-in.

    GTFO as soon as you can, as a person or business or whatever, this will only keep getting worse.
