This has to be the idea of the century
Sometimes a great idea just comes to you out of nowhere at all!
That would be an oxymoron.
that is pitiful
Wow where’d they get that jenius branding idea, I wonder.
Microsoft. Never changes.
Ugh
They should invest a couple billion in it, rename it and cancel afterwards.
You’re thinking of Google, not Microsoft.
No interest in Windows at all, but Copilot is actually a great name for what the product is supposed to be/being marketed as. Windows Intelligence sounds like a return to the very old school long-winded style of Microsoft branding.
The virgin .NET:
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture
The chad POSIX:
LANG=C
I really enjoy working with Microsoft .NET 8.0 LTS ASP.NET Core Blazor Web Assembly
Agreed, Copilot was one of if not the best named AI I think. Why they would want to rebrand it to something so bland so quickly is beyond me
Maybe they didn’t want to tarnish the copilot brand with risky privacy invasion

I have no love for Microsoft but their naming is one of the worst parts… Let’s make a game console! We’ll call it Xbox!.. That sold well let make another! We’ll call it xbox360… Time for a refresh on the gaming console! We’ll call it Xbox one… Another refresh but this time let’s make two versions! We’ll call them Xbox one series s and x box one series s!
Or our popular ide is bloated and people are asking for a light weight ide… What’s our current ide called? Visual studio but alot of people abbreviate it to vs! Let’s call the new one vscode! Do they have anything in common or share functionality or shortcuts? No
Don’t get me started on windows… 3.1… 95…nt…98…2000…me…vista…7…8…10…11 like wtf???
At least Xbox made some sense, it was originally going to be called the DirectXbox, thankfully they shortened the name to something catchier.
Yes… And the sequels? I still don’t know if Xbox one s or x box one x is the higher end model…
Probably the more expensive one.
Granted but still bad naming convension. In comparison which is better Playstation 4 or Playstation 5?
NT was a fully seperate product from 95 and 98, using a different kernel. 95 -> 98 -> Me was the old kernel, NT -> 2000 -> XP -> Vista -> 7 -> 8 -> 10 -> 11 is the other line. Me was a play on Millenium Edition, so that line was just numbered by year. The NT series names are a bit wonky, though. The reason for skipping 9 involves legacy program support and bad coding practices from ye olde programmers. 7 was kind of an arbitrary number to begin with, though.
Yeah, I understand the whole different kernal thing but that’s the type of thing that the average consumer shouldn’t have to know to follow your program naming scheme.
I just enjoy that I can call them “xbone”
7 was the version if you only counted the “best ofs” Windows 3, 95, XP, Vista, 7.
Cortana was the best branding, though I understand only resonated within certain circles.
It sounds invasive. Like it’s a private intelligence agency and not a chat bot.
lol I didn’t think like that at first, but now it’ll stay in my mind.
Just so I’m the first one to utter the phrase:
"We have credible reports from Windows Intelligence that a crime has been committed, your computer is going to restart. "
Perfectly on brand for Windows then lol
You can call it 𝓜𝓮𝓻𝓭𝓮, but it’ll still taste like shit.
Best usage of French vocabulaire I’ve ever seen, and I’m from Canada
What’s the markdown for French font?
It’s not markdown, those are different unicode characters. https://cursivegenerator.net/
Excellent to see that Microsoft’s product strategy continues to just be a flailing mess.
First big tech slapped “powered by AI!” on everything and now - a mere 2 years later - it has been exposed as nothing but a safety risk without a tangible benefit, they’re trying their best to hide it’s mere existence while still dumping it into everything. They just can’t help it.
Why don’t they just call it Clippy?
Or artificial intelligence explorer. AIE for short. And give it a blue icon of an E or something.
Because IM NOT WRITING A FUCKING LETTER
Or reprise their old assistants from XP.
At least a “computer Wizard” would make them stand out compared to ChatGPT in a funny box.
again?
If they did this from the start it might’ve sounded fine, but now it just feels like they’re trend-chasing after Apple Intelligence…
That lawsuit could hold up in court, and I wouldn’t be mad. Fuck MS
Fuck MS
Always has been
I mean they’re already trend-chasing with the Windows 11 UI.
Seems a lot more similar to Gnome and KDE than Apple tbh.
They have a history of copying stuff (including branding) from Linux projects.
Just get the confusing branding over with and call it “Intelligence for Windows Live Business Premium”
Pro max plus
I mean that’s standard practice. If a feature, product, or company develops a bad reputation, just rename it. If your market is large enough there will be enough people not paying attention to not realize it’s the same product.
