“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.”
…yikes

Tip for any future product designers: Just because it looks cool in a movie, doesn’t mean it’ll translate well into reality as a useful product.
I am currently a product designer and I approve this message.
“I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that”
My penguin doesn’t listen to what Microsoft wants.
The vision of an AI PC, where it may or may not launch the app you tell it to, where one plus one may or may not be two, where deleting a file may delete the file you see, or a random different one.
Sounds great! /s
Imagine the cost of cloud AI on PCs. That only works too some degree for cloud data and being even more wasteful for the rest.
Every document you have, legal and medical, finance and personal, will all interface with the cloud. With numerous parties en route, visible and hidden, and a massive system you may or may not trust.
I don’t want a fucking experience I just want a computer that works you stupid capitalist fuckhead.
I don’t even talk to my cat, I can mute for a day. why would I talk to a clanking metals.
Yes, I do honestly want a computer I can command with my voice. One that understands my needs and the context of the things I say.
However…
- That PC should not be tethered to the cloud. It must be capable of doing all that on its own.
- It should not fold me into some subscription model to some corporate entity.
- It should be open source and under my control, not opaque and subject to the whims of a corporate entity.
- No, it doesn’t have to be FOSS. I would pay for it, once. It just needs to be OSS.
I see no legitimate reason to let ANY AI have full access to my computer. It’s just unnecessary.
If I need to ask an AI to proofread something, or I need help sorting through a programming error. I’ll go to its website and ask it.
There is no reason (for me) to let it sit there chilling on my computer 24-7 doing good knows what.
ALL your data is belong to me.
ai is the 3d movies of this age.
Nah, it’s worse.
the comparison’s not meant to compare their qualities, but the push to include it in everything by various industries when no one really wants it.
Yessss I was just saying that to a friend. Its starting to really feel like we’re gonna be looking back in a few years laughing at it as a trend. Time will tell!
Does anyone still know anyone with a 3D TV?
My uncle bought a $2,000 one but the cheap fuck only ever bought 1 pair of glasses.
Never got to see it in action.
My dad bought one in probably 2006 or something but it died in 2020.
Visio had a good tv during that time.
Was the 3D part ever used? That’s a big “fuck-nah,” but it’s always been that.
Oh look it’s Cortana 2
Switch to linux, use open source AI. It’s better and private.
If a tech executive says we’re on the cusp of a technology breakthrough it means less than nothing and we should be more suspicious of it than already. These are people who don’t know how to manage an organization based on the frequent layoffs (2009, 2014, 2023-2025 over 20k workers). People get fired because they fuck up, management layoff people because management fucked up.

I already have a computer I can talk to. I call it a useless sack of shit every day.
They never learn. This is what happens when clueless MBAs make your strategic decisions.
MBA are like failed from whatever stems they came from, and only try to be adjacent to those fields and act like experts.
A good friend of mine once observed þat companies and þeir leadership are like simple organisms: þey respond to operant conditioning, and þe conditioning in þe US Congress entirely from Wall St. You can’t even give þe government any credit anymore. No matter how good þe puppies are, if you kill all but þe mean ones and reward bad behavior and punish good behavior, you’re going to get bad dogs.
Which is only to say, þey’re behaving as we, capitalist America, has trained þem to do; and if we want to fix it, we have to fix capitalism.
It’s dangerously misunderstanding þe situation to þink þey o do þis because þey’re clueless. Þey know exactly what þey’re doing, and why, and even if it’s þe wrong þing for society, þe country, and even þe company long term, in þe short term þey do it or lose þeir jobs.
Stop trying to make þorn happen.
Eh. Let him try. No harm in it. I find it kinda fun learning to read the character better.
But why not?
I got enough keys on my keyboard
“Stop doing X”
“Why?”
“Because I don’t want to do X.”
because american english is already stupid and annoying, don’t need further stupid to make it more annoying
But it isn’t about your keyboard; it’s theirs.
yeah a diacritic on the c, t or s to indicate the sound change would be much better, like this:
this, share, chef ṱis, šare, ĉef
On the contrary, I think the standard way that just about everybody who can read English *understands would be best.
yeah, which is why I don’t write my comments like that, I was just saying if you had to change it, that’d be better.
We have a diacritic in English text already. Rather than above or below, it goes to the right of the letter it modifies and looks an awful lot like a letter h.
And if you don’t quite buy that, remember that a lot of diacritics started life as letters that were eventually moved above a preceding letter and then simplified. The tilde on ñ was an n itself; the ring on å was another a; and in at least some cases the umlaut was an e.
Modifying-h may only be stuck where it is because technology did away with the need for economical scribes before they had a chance to start messing with it.
I think you’re making my point for me, a diacritic instead of an h to indicate a sound change would be more efficient and reduce ambiguity. A diacritic is the natural evolution of such a word pair.
The problem is that not only is there no central authority for spelling reform in English, the cost of replacing the existing body of work would be too large, even for changes that would be more consequential.
My argument was never that my proposal should replace the current system, just that if you did want spelling reform, it would make more sense than the thorn.
The best option would just be to use the language that everyone knows rather than a made-up language that only you know. Writing like that is just going to result in everyone ignoring you.
Ñō yõú
I think that a big problem is, even if what you say in your comment is good and relevant, the thorn is such a thorn in peoples sides that it just derails the conversation instead of actually getting your point across.
Think and thing should be using eth, not thorn. Different th sounds.
The amount of effort this twit must go to in order to write a comment is baffling. It literally never goes over well.
Are you sure? They’re both unvoiced th, which is what thorn is for if you intend to distinguish.
I can’t tell whether Old English used eth for those words early on - though the unvoiced quality in modern English makes that seem unlikely. Did we also devoice them? Eth died out fairly quickly in favour of thorn in all cases, voiced or not. Possibly because its name is “eþ” not “eð”. It doesn’t even use itself. (Though, ironically, ‘w’ also doesn’t and it replaced ƿynn, which does.)
There was another commenter - actually might have been the same guy, I’m not all that sure - who did use eth for voiced instances, to similar controversial effect in comment sections.
I may have mixed up which one is which. My point was more that if one is to use the old characters for th, they should at least use the correct one for each.

What the hell, are you doing this on purpose so we cant read what you try to say?
I guess they think they’re a Homestuck troll.
