This tiny PC is now packing the most powerful laptop chip AMD makes!
Funnily enough, Microsoft threw AMD and Intel under the bus.
NONE of the current selling "AI" PCs qualify for the "CoPilot" branding.
Who knows, maybe you don't want that new Microsoft Recall feature on your system anyway?

The #Windows11 era:
We decided to ruin our image and any reputation we had as an industry standard operating system in the name of innovating with #AI and "changing the way you compute" (or something like that)

In view of the latest news coming out of Microsoft...

Yeah, KDE's Plasma doesn't do that either. Your stuff is safe.

Yes. You can look up recent files and locations and files by type directly from Dolphin:

No AI, no spyware.

jlow,

I cannot wait having an AI assistant on my system that hallucinates documents that are kind of like the one’s I have. Taxes are going to be fun!

Do I have an opinion on Microsoft's big push for Copilot+ PCs?

You bet I do.

At Gizmodo Au, I've dived into the details (that we know) and the problems (more than just the one...)

It's going to be a summer of Laptops and PC reviews, and this is one of the most unique systems I'm test driving!

Who wants "thin and light" when your laptop could be mistaken for RoboCop's lunch box?
Military grade rugged convertible PC is GO!

Having an AI ("Windows Recall" is enabled by default) that tracks every move you do on your computer and of course has no filter (Microsoft's own FAQ clearly states it will remember every password you type) is idiotic. But Tech bros are frothing at the mouth for anything AI so here we are.

Looking at the settings, it seems you can exclude certain apps, but you still have to customise it.

TBH, wouldn't this be incredibly dangerous in domestic abuse situations? Even if everything is done locally, an abusive partner could spy on everything!

@WhyNotZoidberg this means that:

a) my current company will have to stay on Windows 10 for the foreseeable future (workers council expressly forbidds this form of data collection).

b) my current company will have to migrate >500 workstations and all business processes away from Windows.

... cries in never getting the nicer Windows 11 WSL2 support

Did the people at Microsoft really think this was something people wanted? Windows 11 is just straight up spyware. They aren't even trying to hide it.
