I completely agree. There are some killer AI apps, but why should AI run on my OS? Recall is a complete disaster of a product and I hope it doesn’t see the light of day, but I’ve no doubt that there’s a place for AI on the PC.
Whatever application there is in AI at the OS level, it needs to be a trustless system that the user has complete control of. I’d be all for an Open source AI running at that level, but Microsoft is not going to do that because they want to ensure that they control your OS data.
Machine learning in the os is a great value add for medium to large companies as it will allow them to track real productivity of office workers and easily replace them.
Say goodbye to middle management.
I think it could definitely automate some roles where you aren’t necessarily thinking and all decisions are made based on information internally available to the PC.
For sure these exist but some decisions need human input, I’m not sure how they automate out those roles just because they see stuff happening on the PC every day.
If anything I think this feature is used to spy on users at work and see when keystrokes fall below a certain level each day, but I’m sure that’s already possible for companies to do (but they just don’t).
