Windows 11 will throttle 'excessive' users of AI as Copilot rolls out
www.pcworld.com
After debuting Copilot in newer versions of Windows, Microsoft is giving itself the power to limit users who use it too much...without defining exactly what 'too much' means.

    So Windows will look people out, who use their product, while stuffing AI in every opening?

      I’m curious what their limits are, but I’m guessing it for people running some script to have it running 24/7. But I wouldn’t put it past Microsoft to do something more nefarious.

      I’m guessing at some point they are gonna sell a subscription model that removes the limit or something in classic Microsoft fashion.

      Definitely that and not the .05% generating terrabytes of Loli porn.

    Not surprising. Their free AI models on Bing are great, but GPT4 is limited to 5 messages before you have to start a new topic, and DALL-E throttles heavily once you run out of credits that reset weekly… Or you can buy more uses with the daily points you earn from doing quizzes and such on Bing. The bar is set pretty low.
