    Copilot is fantastic branding tbh. It’s like the MBAs want change for the sake of keeping their jobs.

      For real.

      I dislike Copilot with a burning passion, but I can’t deny it’s an amazing name. Because that’s what AI in an OS should be.

      A copilot. One that will take over and help me do things, especially tedious things like offline translation, better screen reader functionality for the blind, better speech recognition and synthesis, etc.

      Of course that’s not what MS is doing, they’re doing it to shove gimmicks down our throat and to scoop up data en masse.

      Windows Intelligence is just… Ugh. Do they not get that Apple Intelligence, while still being a bit of a rubbish name, at least works because it still can be shortened to AI?

      I agree. In a vacuum, Copilot is a good name, potentially S tier. Too bad they shoved it in everyone’s face and made us all hate it. Now they have to rebrand and hope we don’t hate that too. Spoiler, we will.

        Don’t even know why they think rebranding it will work

        People aren’t stupid. Referring to shit with another word doesnt make it any less gross.

          don’t fool yourself. people still don’t know how to install windows. consider the outside world, not just our echo chamber
