People familiar with Microsoft’s plans say the company is moving to streamline or remove certain Copilot integrations across in-box apps like Notepad and Paint in 2026, after pushback from users.
Didn’t read the article, but honestly who cares what they say regarding this? Money talks and they invested $$$$$$$$ into these shenanigans.
Unless they’ve got an equally intensive use for all those expensive data centers built (and being built) for Ai, how on earth would they similarly profit by taking Copilot out of more things when it collects so much marketing data for them to sell? Their stock value dropped probably from the backlash, but I highly doubt they care about their users. It’s the money and image clearly.
My job has me working on the power systems supplying some upcoming data centers for multiple clients. Everything is constantly changing deadlines in engineering, but max throttle to get everything done. I’m certain this kind of rapid expansion is for Ai provisioning.
Its still a daily auto uninstall on all my machines. Less talk more action or its just another lie.
…And add it twenty other places.
