    Same why no one (except maybe disabled people or totally technically clueless ones) would need an LLM to toggle HDR or adjust brightness/volume/whatever. … ok, bad example as i actually do that in a smart-home

    Having copilot built in to windows is basically “smart-home”-ing your computer. No one needs to ask home assistant to turn off their lights, but it damn sure is handy and most often faster than doing it manually - same with my example of turning HDR on/off.

    Having it built in means you could ask it to interact with every piece of your computer. If you can’t see how there is no USE for this, you’ve got a very narrow mind and no ability to think outside the box.

      The reason for a smart home is to make it…smart. Most of my home is automated so we don’t have to do anything. Waiting a second (at best) for copilot to toggle my HDR is the time I’d need to click it myself.

      But the major point you want to ignore is privacy. Copilot needs a microphone (typing the shit would be slower than just doing it manually). Sure, there are people who are totally ignorant to privacy and even use Alexas or WhatsApp or things like that, but I value privacy. The last thing I would need is for windows to listen 24/7 just so I can toggle HDR or dim the screen. It Wouldn’t even work due to my security 😁

      BTW, I can do that now already via smart home.

          You’re becoming boring. If you so love being a product just so you can speak to your windows to do all the things you “manually” would need too long to do: Go ahead. If you see progress here and awesome innovation: Be my guest. Don’t forget to install the chatgpt-browser too :)

              lol, if you’d knew how my “dark-age” houses look…embrace more of these “innovations” and get some alexas and rings! It’s the pinnacle of tech. Besides copilot, obviously :)

                So you understand how having integrations with different systems works, and the benefits it provides…but can’t understand that the same thing applies to AI built into an OS?

                Amazing.

                  You are incredible…if you see a worthy value to sacrifice privacy to do “all os-stuff by voice”, then go for it. Even if it’d be a local LLM I couldn’t think of one single scenario where this might be remotely handy. Can you? Or are you just antagonizing out of boredom?
