Microsoft has gone all-in with its plans to turn the Windows PC into an AI-powered 'agentic OS.' But at least one PC maker says consumers aren't buying the Copilot hype.

Is amazing Microslop is still around given have shitty their products have.

It’s always baffled me how Microslop’s entire business model as far back as I can remember seems to be “Make the shittiest possible version of every product imaginable, then watch it for some reason become the global standard, then make it even worse and suffer no consequences.”

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

They can afford to have AI fail, almost every business in Europe and the US buys their software. That’s not going away anytime soon

If they lose all the money they have pumped into AI, then they will be relying on Windows and Office.

Good for them that both of those are currently doing fine.

I feel like you were being sarcastic, but they’re actually fine in enterprises, which is what they actually care for.

Well I don’t think they’re growing. Depending on the sector all the AI data scanning is a concern for a number of companies. I’ve seen a lot of European discussions about getting away from US cloud services too.

That made me wonder what os china uses. Turns out they use a chinese made linux distro called kylin for most consumer desktops and 90% of govenment desktops https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kylin_(operating_system)

Fucking based.

Unfortunately its propriotary ): (pretty sure that violates the gpl but I guess china doent care.) (Although there is an open source version called neokylin!)
