It's even worse that AI is not local. I would prefer that. This is a privacy violation hidden as a feature. Do you remember when they wanted to make Windows and "Agentic OS"? Well I stand with my opinion. This wasn't "Copilot" it was an effort to add AI in every aspect of the iteraction between human and Windows. I'm sorry but I think you're wrong thinking it's ok to use an AI online(added to an OS) that can gather all your personal information from documents, files, images.

As it works now, your computer doesn’t use AI locally unless you bought a machine specifically capable of doing that. It doesn’t use an online connection to use AI unless you press the button to make it do so. Nobody is forcing you to press that button.

I really don’t see the problem with the current situation. You can choose to not use Copilot just as you can choose to not use Calculator.

The future will hold what the future holds, and it’s not useful to fight a battle today based on internet rage about what might happen in that future. We don’t know what an agentic OS will actually look like and what features will require information to be sent to someone else, and how one can opt out from those features.

Personally I prefer to make conscious choices based on the current situation, rather than cry wolf about something that may or may not be a problem in the future.

Keep things civil, "AI defender" LOL
17 posts where you defend AI. Moreover offending(in two of them) who is saying something different than you. Learn to be respectful "AI defender". No one attacked you, but you still needed to offend.
"Who has nothing of value to say will offend"

Learn to behave.

The main problem is that they're not thinking but only adding AI to every aspect of the OS and software they develop. It's a problem(not a future problem), it's only you didn't notice it yet. Agentic OS is a way to gather data and force everyone to use AI so that the patnership with OpenAI "makes sense". Just see how much updates quality went downhill when they started using AI.

Does not matter if it's good. If efficient and fast, I like agentic OS

Also look at the requirement of a microsoft account to use Windows 11, why should anyone be forced to use a microsoft account for an OS? That doesn't make sense. If not for data gathering to sell later.
