I actually want this update but Windows Update isn't serving it to me yet
what does it change?
It mostly adds AI features. Last time I checked, Microsoft even tells you that there's no need to install it unless you just want to check out the AI stuff.
Not to mention the AI stuff is arbitrarily locked to specific laptops.
Aside from the AI stuff it also bakes in some features that everyone used tools for before eg: gsudo is now (somewhat) built-in, compressing files actually has options now aside from just zipping it... But that's about it in terms of interesting stuff for non-AI
You can always use the Windows 11 Upgrade assistant to force it
