If you're anything like me, you're probably done with AI being forced into Windows. Well, turns out AI in Windows isn't done with you, as the Windows president has big plans to make your OS even more bloated.
Pavan Davuluri, the president of Windows and devices at Microsoft, recently took to X to share their feelings on the future of the OS (as spotted by Tom's Hardware).

Many productivity apps already have systems to do this kind of work, and this means the likes of Copilot will only be getting a bigger seat to reign over your PC from.
This is all before mentioning that not all Windows users will even care about greater efficiency and more productivity.

And, frankly, AI implementation has served to be a mild nuisance in Windows.

But what's the alternative? I'll admit I'm a little put off by the learning curve of using (and actually understanding) Linux, but the powers that one can summon due to sheer AI-based annoyance certainly should not be overlooked.
