Microsoft's planned new AI trick for Edge will 'automatically open the Copilot side pane' with Outlook email links — and I think it's a bad idea

Microsoft is looking to bring a new AI trick to Edge — and I'm betting most of the browser's users will hate it.

    You don’t have enough AI-ready GPU cores so Teams is running the local copilot model on the CPU with your most recent outlook emails in order to prepare a dummy to send to the cloud for further analysis

    …I don’t know if any of the above is true but if it didn’t even stop you for a second to question it, isn’t it time to get off Windows?

    I’m not even going to recommend an OS, just anything but Windows. Fucking Apple is more trustworthy.

      That’s a depressingly probable reason even though you meant it as techno-babble. It is actually possible that the machine doesn’t have enough NPU power!

      I’m already using Linux everywhere I can both personally and at work, heck even my work laptop is running Linux. The blocker on my work desktop is that the remote access tool I use multiple times a day doesn’t have a functional Linux version.

      I could switch my work desktop over to Apple but I’ve never liked MacOS.
