Satya Nadella (Microslop CEO), has said that they're engineering this exact thing for Windows. Not a chatbot that runs in Windows, but Windows as a chatbot. It will have access to everything and be able to take actions on your behalf. And they're doing it all by vibecoding Windows from the ground up. The figure I read was 30% of Microslop's code was AI and they announced that like they were proud of it.

The AI bubble keeps radicalizing me further by letting me know that there exists a class of people who are able and willing to pay $300 a day to have a stupid chatbot expose their PII to hackers and maybe set appointments for them just so long as they don't have to interact with a poor person for whom that would be a life-changing amount of money.

Not just a poor person, that's 9000 bucks per month!
