I know nobody with a soul at Microsoft and the ability to do something about it will read this, but maybe, just maybe, shoving your AI agent down your users' throats against their will and cramming it into every single application on their computer is not the best way to engender goodwill and user adoption.

Maybe if you offered it to them as a voluntary upgrade that they could use to try it out without it being forced on them would have done a better job.

But you know, go on being Microsoft. You've been this way for 50 fucking years, you're gonna keep being this way, and nobody can stop you except your own complete and total downfall.
