@jon Because from their standpoint it makes perfect sense: Gather all data they can get away with about their users and sell it for nice profits ON TOP OF the license fees they are already paying, which their investors love.
And in one fell swoop finally creating the access all the acronym services have been having wet dreams about for years.
And oh so many people just sleepwalk into it...
With apps, the UI is what you build. With agents in #Microsoft365, the UI is whatever Microsoft happens to do with Copilot. Far too often, that UI is either broken, inconsistent, or different from the last time.
How are regular #Copilot users supposed to live with this exactly? As an example, access to "Get Agents" has been broken for 5 days now, due to a known issue. No functioning workaround from MS.

#microsoft # Linux #copilot #recall #independence moving away from Microsoft and Windows after a lifetime! Started out in win 3.11. Finally had enough after all this copilot crap!
Going to be looking for help from all you experienced Linux users out there! Please be patient?
If you are an office worker of any kind please understand Copilot Recall for what it is: Microsoft wants a training dataset of _what your job looks like_ in order to _replace you_. The nepo baby your oligarch puts in charge will happily pay half your salary to Microsoft to get even most of your job done without you.
Wealth wants access to skill without giving the skilled access to wealth.

This will affect you even if you haven't enabled the so called "feature" or not even using Windows. This can ultimately spy on your conversations with somebody who uses Recall.
"That groan you hear is users’ reaction to Recall going back into Windows"
Na klar, #Wordpress hat jetzt einen #GenAI Website Builder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO2YaugiEns - das ist so ähnlich wie #Copilot in #Sharepoint, nur für ganze Websites, nicht nur einzelne Seiten.
In case you forgot about Microsoft Recall, it looks like it will reappear in your Copilot+ computer soon running Windows 11.
I am sure you are all thrilled with the idea of a screenshot being taken of your screen every 3 seconds, right?
Microsoft is about to launch Recall for real this time
The long-delayed feature will begin gradually rolling out to Windows Insiders.

When #microsoft adds #CoPilot to effin' #notepad and #meta adds an #AI option to #WhatsApp you know that the lunatics have taken over the asylum. Rational decision making has gone completely out the window with these companies. They see a shiny new bandwagon and by golly they're going to jump on it, whether it makes sense or not.
For the love of all that is holy, or unholy, make it STAHP
