That is, until the tech press started screaming about 1, 2 and 3.
Well, everyone is climbing on the AI bandwagon even though some of the AI
people themselves aren't sure it's a good idea, the companies are getting
sued for hoovering up all sorts of copyrighted and private information.
Microsoft is certainly hyping it beyond all rationality. They (naturally) see
this as a way to increase sales/use of Windows. But it could actually have the
opposite effect. What if HP/Lenovo/Dell/etc. start to back away from the whole
"Copilot PC" branding?
I think this is exactly what the whole "AI" train needs. A huge dose of
Reality. People will continue to push back against this nightmare technology.
I would not be surprised to see Apple's 1984 Big Brother commercial make a
comeback.
This could not be any creepier. Microsoft actually wanting to record
everything you do. Combine that with their horrible track record of security
and you have this PR disaster.
