"...paired with next-gen AI experiences that will result in new Windows devices that are always aware of what you’re doing..."

That's a GOOD thing?

Artificial intelligence (AI) integration in Windows offers several benefits. It can enhance user experience by providing personalized recommendations, improving search functionalities, optimizing system performance, and enhancing security measures. AI-powered features can streamline tasks, such as organizing files, managing notifications, and even predicting user behavior to preemptively address issues or offer assistance. Overall, AI in Windows contributes to a more efficient, intuitive, and secure computing environment.


No its not a good.....

Oh boy I’m so excited for yet another way to be spied upon by a company preying upon my personal data. Please Microsoft, continue to unveil features with the vague appearance of being useful which in reality only serve to make an incredibly wealthy company even more wealthy. Corporate gluttony is ruining everything.

"'the next generation of Windows PCs', differentiated by the AI experiences that will be exclusive to them"

No thanks. I'm good.

What about ARM is in any way better?

The large majority of windows users have never compiled an app and the majority of windows programs are closed source.

Say goodbye to EVERYTHING YOU USE WINDOWS FOR, it's all built for non-ARM processors.

Does noone remember surface RT? Windows phones?

The new chips are so powerful that most emulated apps will no longer feel emulated, which was a big hurdle for Windows on Arm to overcome.

So probably they've got an x86_64 emulator on board to be able to run non-native programs.

If I was prone to conspiracy theories, I'd think they plan to switch entirely to ARM and drop x86_64 support for Windows 14 in order to create a walled garden.
