They should have just made it an app, with the options in the app to integrate it into other apps like Office.

I use the Claude app, use AI in VSCode etc… but I like to specifically pick what I install and how I like to use it.

Obviously they would be sued either way as including your own AI is like including Internet Explorer as default as the anti competitive nature of that.

You can tell they wanted the entire OS to be AI driven, but nobody wants to spend their evenings barking orders at a computer.

We like mice and keyboards, they work.

Problem is they can’t monetise that.

How would an AI driven OS even work? I can't wrap my head around this madness

Basically you throw your mouse and keyboard into garbage and speak into a mic to tell AI what you wanna do.

It’s like those futuristic movies where people talk to their computers. Except it’s not like talking to Jarvis. It’s like talking to a version of Jarvis that was dropped on his head a few times.
