Now you can just prompt engineer windows defender to deactivate and disable the firewall. Nice! Script kiddies rejoice!!

Ok let me play devil’s advocate and preface this with I’m not a big windows fan at all since I primarily use MacOS and Linux, but I could see this as moderately useful but used in a slightly different way. I don’t want the AI to actually make the changes by itself, even with my permission. But being able to ask it a natural language question about how to make a specific change and then walking me through how to make those changes, like showing me where in the the menu or OS that setting is hiding could be very useful. In the long run it could help teach the end user more about the OS and how things are organized and setup.

Just my 2¢

Microsoft would absolutely love it if people had zero computer literacy and had to ask an AI for help to perform even the most rudimentary of tasks.

Because then the AI becomes indispensable.

Thanks Microsoft for admitting that Wimdows sucks. You didn't even try really.

They really are trying hard for people to switch to Linux huh

Organise Settings better, put common features front and centre?

Why is finding my IP address so hard on a Windows machine? Its either open settings app and click down 3 layers deep or open a pwsh prompt and either ipconfig or Get-NetIPAddress.

Linux click network applet in most desktop environments. Even MacOS option + click network icon

Windows XP's UI philosophy was great: one could always find what they needed within a two-clicks distance. Everything just went downhill after that. If they ever fix Windows, it will probably look a lot like XP again.

Blackmagic please, for the benefit of all editors, make DaVinci Resolve work properly on Linux. I'd switch tomorrow.

linux time.
