> That little copilot icon is sitting there in the task tray, clickable and usable.

I'm using Win 11 and I didn't even notice Copilot on my task bar until you mentioned it...

I think that is a wakeup call for me to finally flash my pc to linux

What's worse then copilot on task bar is the copilot key on keyboard. This key doesn't even have its own scan code, instead it send something like Win+Shift+F23.

Sounds not to bad for me, or have you bound anything to Super-Shift-F23?

I get what you - a HN user - mean. But for the broader planet of Windows users, it just becomes this thing you click to get some general info from on whatever general topic, question, or need comes to mind. I think it is rapidly becoming quit banal - a thing people think of as just being another part of using their computing device. No fanfare; no fireworks; no hand-wringing over rights or privacy or training data: just a thing you click on to ask questions to as part of their normal day.

Man, you have really bought into the LLM kool-aid. Your latest response feels as if it was spit-balled by ChatGPT.

You misunderstand me: I don't advocate - I'm just expressing what I think is likely for the billion people out there who now have access to these tools. This Hackernews community is a rather rarefied atmosphere. When we step out into the broader public, there is a whole different world going on. Whether we like it or not, that world is what we have to deal with.

Was this generated with an LLM?
