Microsoft has started rolling out a.i. to its Windows Operating System for PCs. This “feature” pretends to make it easier to find documents on a computer.

What they should have done is create a reverse index for document retrieval by contents keyword. That proven technology has been around for decades, and doesn’t use a.i.

Microsoft’s tendency to force a.i. unto users of its Windows operating system poses significant threats to privacy and the safety of corporate secrets.

For those of us who have a business to protect, what operating systems help safeguard privacy?

    Ars Technica reports Microsoft will add AI to Windows, to steal your corporate secrets

    Look, I think it's a dumb feature and a dumb direction for Microsoft to head so deep into (AI and the whole Copilot branding). But that title is a downright lie and not supported by the article at all.

    The article refutes your title in the 5th and 6th paragraph. Did you link to a reddit post rather than the article to make your title more clickbait? Come on, that doesn't foster actual discussion. You can do better than that.
