I didn’t read the whole article but it reads like this is just some guy speculating based on the reaction to Windows 11, rather than anything remotely grounded in fact, or even the rumors mentioned in the byline.
yeah this guy made everything up. microsoft is already scsling back on ai. removing it from places that dont make sense, like notepad. they have reorged windows and the new head is focusing on the core parts on windows, like using kess resources and scaling back ai
Yeah it’s all speculation. The author basically ran a follow up to another article, which they acknowledge, which was a poor translation of a different article. The whole thing is like a journalistic centipede funneling shit all the way down.
Like why start the article with a line like:
Windows 12 rumors are just that … rumors.
And then run an article with even more rumors. I get you can speculate based on trends, but this just seems to be written just to generate clicks from a hopeful Linux community.
idk. I think it’s very clearly labelled that this is the author’s guess at where things are going, with context around it to explain those prognostications. I like articles like that; it’s not saying anything definitive, but his specific angle on why agenic AI might be so interwoven into Windows 12 to make it impossible to strip out was fairly compelling, imho.
Who knows; it’s not like Microsoft isn’t aware of the AI backlash, so maybe they’ll scrap most of the agenic AI bullshit. Or maybe ask the speculation is wrong and it won’t be included. But if Windows 12 includes deeply integrated AI slop, then I think the author has a decent chance of being right.
But I’m happy to hear why this article is a waste of time, so let me know if you disagree with his argument. I’m not married to the idea, but I’m seeing Linux adoption IRL already by “normal people” who have connections to technical people, so I’m biased toward the argument.

I read about half. It’s a terrible article.
I didn’t either but I don’t need to; it’ll be shit when it comes and my decision is made going forward.
Exactly my sentiment but that doesn’t mean we need this low-effort editorial masquerading as a news piece
Okay I’ll take your word for it, I should read it though I suppose
Isnt that what the entire YouTube community is doing?
