My friend installed a local LLM copilot to his computer and asked it if he had any extra files that could be deleted. It just doesn't seem smart to query a LLM when people have hard coded apps that will do the same. I have a space saving program that searches app directories and my files and lists unwanted files that I van delete to save space. Why are we remaking the wheel with half of the bloat LLMS is trash
He might read it, but he's got a lot of money telling him not to listen.
They're going to keep doing this, because they essentially have a monopoly. Apple is the only real competitor, and they're paying Google for AI now, so same-same.
I think Linux on desktop is at about 3%, but rising lately. That's not enough to change their minds, but it is a good alternative. Linux Mint is where I've been for the past year and a half. As long as you don't absolutely need Adobe or AutoCAD products, etc., it's a stable, and useful alternative.
Valve is making good progress on pushing Linux. I think other companies could also follow suit. The only real reason Microsoft is so dominant is because windows comes preloaded.
We’re also unimpressed by his performance, so…
Koolaid comes in many flavors
If Microsoft's AI actually worked I would be more impressed but it "hallucinates" so often that it becomes nearly worthless.
Well I'm not really impressed. Its nothing new. Just LLMs. What just cause tech bros put a fancy title on it im supposed to be impressed? I've been using Akinator for well over a decade.
Exactly. This MS dude cofounded DeepMind in 2010, he knows AI is not just fucking LLM, but pretends it is.
Microsoft, you make an operating system, ms office, and some apps. I give you some money, you do your job, that's it. Transaction ended.
And I grew up in the era were companies gave a shit about providing decent products, or at least convincingly pretended to do so.
Modern companies would take the consumer's money and spit on their face. They're no longer interested in no exchange, they want it all and how dare you not agree?
Any image or video? Can it generate a video of what I did with your mom last night?
I still cannot manually sort grouped app… but garbage AI can install malware on my pc on its own

The security and privacy are reversed. It's additional privacy and potential security concerns.
