"Microsoft is walking back Windows 11’s AI overload — scaling down Copilot and rethinking Recall in a major shift" For Now.

Give them 6-8 months, they'll shove it back in quietly in a way you can't see it happening as easily.

    Absolutely.

    This just means "We pushed our crap too fast and people noticed, so we're letting things cool off slightly to quiet down the critics, and next time we'll boil the frog more slowly."

    I think you've just neatly summarized, uh ...

    ... The world (such as we've incentivized it, anyway).

    Sadly, yes.

    What it comes down to is that any product or service with a profit incentive will inevitably betray you, no matter how good or how well-intentioned it started out.

    Our only saviour is open source, self hosting, and federation.

    It's why ownership rather than rental is the model we should all individually be pursuing.
