Meanwhile. Microslop will soon release windows 12. 90% of the computer in the world will need to be updated to barely run an ai booted os.
The article that came out about Win12 was retracted for being completely fabricated, due to what appears to be a mistake in translation (possibly involving an AI translator) from German to English.
I'm not defending Microslop in any shape or form, tbh I'm sure somehow they are gonna make Windows 12 even worse than 11. But yeah, the original info about Win12 was speculation that got lost in translation.

As proud as we are, Lemmy isn't immune from the misinformation epidemic. My experience is we just drive by, upvote, and internalize a headline's claim without much skepticism, kind of like Reddit, and we largely don't seem to want to do anything about it.
"AI Booted" in the same way a car can get booted, eh? That describes it quite elegantly.
Consumer Desktop Computers*
Most computers actually run Linux (servers) or Android.
I used to think I hated computers, but once I tried linux I realized that I just hate windows (and macOS too, for that matter)
Mine will soon too
What does AI-booted mean? The boot process is deterministic. Why does it need AI?
I don't want my bootloader to be creative or generate novel outputs. I want it to boot quickly, reliably, and the same way every time unless I change something I probably wasn't supposed to.
What part of that could AI even be conceivably inserted into?
"Initializing gobbledygook— not just a process, but a the first of many processes which will activate in sequence to bring your computer from powered-down to ready-to-use! Beep boop."
What you don't understand is they paid a lot of money to develop AI so they're damn well going to use it for everything.
What, don't you want a boot process that offers a different surprise every day?
For that you should choose Arch
btw
Touché.
Windows does that already.
It means the developer let Claude write some slop and then went home early to play with their kids. He's not a chump like Linus working all weekend to make things right.
