In light of the recent forays by AI projects/products into the reason of coding assistants, from copilot to Devin, this reads to me as a sign that they've finally accepted that you can't make an ai assistant that provides actual value from an LLM purely trained on text.
This is Microsoft copying Google's captcha homework. We trained their OCR for gBooks, we trained their image recognition on traffic lights and buses and so signs.
Now we get to train their ai assistant on how to click around a windows OS.
yep! I didn't pick up on any explicit link ... but the coupling AI and recall is not coincidence. It's serfdom.
Well, so, you use password generator, the password screenshot is saved.
This makes most password generators useless because they show the password for user feedback. You can turn this MS AI off, but I will have no idea if there was a bug.
Didn't they do that before with the Windows 10 timeline, which they later axed it off?
I miss windows 7
THIS.
IS.
SPARTA!
Memes from the oldest of ages...
Rise up to the top of the pages!
How does this work with local laws regarding 2 party recording? If you're on a video call and this records the other party without their permission, that is AFAIU illegal in many states in the US. I'm sure in parts of Europe as well.

NOPE!
You cannot pay me to use Windows 11.
Wish I had a choice, at work. Technically I can run Linux or MacOS, but I'd need to run a Windows VM for a few things anyway.
What could go wrong? /s
This is great, I can show all my 4k porn collection to my managers doing Teams screen sharing!
You can do that anyway 👍
I read this as "40k porn" and was like...wtf mate.
Slaanesh.
Warhammer 40k Porn?
I wonder if the dudes in those giant armor suits with tank-sized guns are compensating for something... 🤔
That's a wtf for you? You must be new to the internet then

I mean, no thanks.
But they did this already, right? Their "Timeline" feature in Windows 10 recorded a log of your activities to display it in your Win+Tab menu screen. I switched it off immediately, but the point is this is a new approach to an old feature they have done in the past.
Everybody must have turned it off, though, because it hadn't been present in Win 11 until now. It's still a dumb idea.
A lawsuit waiting to happen... someone needs to class action MS for systemic breaches of privacy. Think of all the critical infrastructure, government, medical, policing, etc. systems processing sensitive, private, and in some cases classified, information.
