Ah yes, Cortana and Copilot both suck, but surely third time's the charm. And when Scout is, inevitably, unpopular as well? We'll see what they call number four.
You forgot clippy, but everyone forgets about clippy unless it's in this exact context. Or it's Norfolk wizard game.
You forgot they called it Bing in the middle too
Is there any fundamental diffidence between Copilot and Scout, or is it just a straight up rebranding?
Cortana was actually really good on Windows Phone but they dumbed it down and added all sort of crap to it by the time it was integrated onto the desktop. They could've doubled down on whatads it good but nope.
