In a few years Microsoft will just release Windows 12, with most of these AI features removed. Maybe they'll do some user friendly tweaks too, but just a few. And most of Windows refugees will come back, praising Microsoft for listening to the community. Meanwhile there'll be even more spyware and even less user control over the OS, but the vast majority will never notice that. That's all it takes.
Given MS has been testing Windows on the Cloud in the enterprise space for a while now, I wouldn't be shocked if future major Windows versions, ie. Win12, became cloud-based.
