This has to be the idea of the century
Should have stayed with Cortana, at least that was a cool name.
I think staying with cortana and focusing on making that a useful feature would be a better strat. It would be cool to have a little cortana robot inside your computer helping you with various tasks.
I don’t think Microsoft is capable of not fumbling everything related to the Halo franchise.
“have you tried painting it pink, then maybe they will like it”
Bro looked at apples corny branding and envied it 😭🤞
As always, Microsoft is always one step behind apple.
At least apple intelligence was a little clever, its abbreviation is still “AI”
But windows intelligence? That just sounds fucking stupid. As an operating system windows is not known for its intelligence. Stupid slow, bloated, spying sack of shit software.
They should’ve looked at their star software product: Microsoft access.
Now presenting: Access Intelligence
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.
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
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???
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.
7 was the version if you only counted the “best ofs” Windows 3, 95, XP, Vista, 7.
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”
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?
Maybe they didn’t want to tarnish the copilot brand with risky privacy invasion
Cortana was the best branding, though I understand only resonated within certain circles.
Because it’s Microsoft and they have to compulsively rename things every few years.
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
The virgin .NET:

You can call it 𝓜𝓮𝓻𝓭𝓮, but it’ll still taste like shit.
What’s the markdown for French font?
It’s not markdown, those are different unicode characters. https://cursivegenerator.net/
Best usage of French vocabulaire I’ve ever seen, and I’m from Canada
It will be as successfull as the twitter to x rebranding
Sometimes a great idea just comes to you out of nowhere at all!
Ooh, can I use that App that used to be Remote Desktop and then they renamed it, hmm, what did they call it… oh right “Windows App”
You mean “Microsoft Terminal Services Client”?
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.
Microsoft’s naming strategy is just the American Economics wheel from South Park, but with names on it. Of all the big tech companies, they are easily the fucking worst at naming shit.
Microsoft try not to copy everything Apple does challenge: Impossible
At least “Apple Intelligence” is cute because the initials for it are A.I.
Excellent to see that Microsoft’s product strategy continues to just be a flailing mess.
