A new Microsoft internal presentation reveals the company’s long-term goal for Windows. Their marketing department is secretly working for Big Linux?

And then people ask me why do I create a VM with every Version of Windows that get installed at my hardware...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

An excellent connection! I can imagine (or maybe just hope) the Windows (and maybe to a lesser extent DevDiv) would feel this way.

The purpose of this post is two fold, firstly to provide an introduction to Model-View-Update-eXtended (MVUX), as developed by the Uno Platform, and secondly to provide a comparison to the more traditional Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) approach to building XAML-based applications. Mmmmmmm!

These approaches are all great but they all fail to handle the real world of MVGIGO.

Computational giant Microsoft is turning plenty of heads when it unveiled a new feature that’s being called out as controversial for obvious reasons. With all the stuff they normally grab, I'm worried what they call 'sensitive'

bloop is a developer assistant that uses GPT-4 to answer questions about your codebase. In case you don't understand your code
Which probably means you wrote it a few months/weeks/days back.

In 2001 (the year, not the movie), "Expert system" was a well enough known concept that a guy started a Wikipedia article on the subject.
We used the term twenty years before that.
Gradually, we concluded: Well, they are useful systems, but they are not really 'Artificial Intelligence', as they were first called. They are just a certain class of algorithms suitable for a specific purpose.
We have (in 40+ years) created a few new algorithms to do similar things. I wonder how long it will take for us to conclude that they are useful systems, but they are not really 'Artificial Intelligence', just a useful set of algorithms for certain types of tasks.

I’ve already seen some pushback from experts on how this current crop just fit into the “useful for some tasks” category, so you’re definitely on the right track.
Personally, I think that opinion will spread once a few of these businesses crash & burn when people realize they’re not that useful.

Not referring to the astronauts in the OP but rather the great unwashed masses who may lose their jobs to future automation / robot / AI derivatives... we've already concluded that they were useful "systems" but not very intelligent - just useful for certain tasks.
Just sayin'...

Microsoft is in the process of adding a new feature to its Bing chatbot that will considerably increase the utility value of the AI, namely image recognition. I think it looks like a weasel, Dave

Dust off your old 386-powered PC and get ready to run ChatGPT. Can you get it to play DOOM for you?

Google hopes to make the feature, dubbed ‘Playables,’ available on desktop and mobile. Get to the next level to watch video

Microsoft researchers have recently discovered an attack leveraging custom and open-source tools to target internet-facing Linux-based systems and IoT devices. Look over there! Someone else is getting hacked!
Pay no attention to the OS behind the curtain!
