“We set out to solve one of the most common frustrations we hear — finding and changing settings on your PC — using the power of AI agents,” Navjot Virk, corporate vice president of Windows Experiences at Microsoft, said in a blog post on Tuesday. “An agent uses on-device AI to understand your intent and with your permission, automate and execute tasks.”

    Bullshit to all those points. If you couldnt find it in the control panel before, you sure as shit cant find it now.

    Also, they’ve been “slowly” transitioning for over two years, wtf? We waiting for the next OS at this point?

    I do NOT need voice activation, I know how to use a keyboard and mouse, the core components of input for a computer.

    You want to use your voice, talk to your mom cause I’m done with her.

    j/k on the mom part

      Oh you’ve tried this new AI Agent that can change the settings for you, have you?

      Bullshit to all those points.

      Which points are “bullshit”? That they’re slowly moving everything out of the control panel to the settings app? This is literally what they’ve been telling us they’re doing, and what we’ve seen them do.

      That they still have the control panel? Nope, not bullshit, it’s still there.

      That being able to ask Copilot to change a setting would be helpful? How is that bullshit?

      I do NOT need voice activation

      Good thing it’s not MANDATORY then. You can keep using your mouse and keyboard. Also you don’t have to use your VOICE for copilot - it’s much easier to use the mouse and keyboard. That’s how most people use it.

      Also, they’ve been “slowly” transitioning for over two years, wtf? We waiting for the next OS at this point?

      This stuff takes time unfortunately. If they change everything at once they get even more anger and pushback. This way it’s just a slow and easy move away from the control panel - 1 thing here, 2 things there, and before you know it hey look! Everything is in the settings app now!

      Oh good mum joke big fella! So clever and badarse.

        I’d rather they spend time fixing all the things theyre “working on” rather than introduce more half baked shit into the os for fucks sake. There is a huge list of things that keep people from upgrading so instead they said “now you have to”. Fuck that. Just fix your shit and people will upgrade willingly.

        Fuck windows. They had a great thing going with Windows 10, then the reneged. They said windows 10 was going to be the last major OS for windows. How do we trust anything from Microsoft now?

        now it’s going to cause people to trash their working device because it’s only 7th gen and doesn’t have TPM 2.0. greedy little piggies who want to track their users and throw privacy out the window.

            The problem is you’ve got shit on your own glasses so you’re seeing everything as shit.
