Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" (www.windowscentral.com)

Microsoft's AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has shared his opinion after recent pushback from users online that are becoming frustrated with Copilot and AI on Windows. In a post on X, Suleyman says he's mind blown by the fact that people are unimpressed with the ability to talk fluently with an AI computer.

His post comes after Windows president Pavan Davuluri was recently met with major backlash from users online for posting about Windows evolving into an agentic OS. His post was so negatively received that he was forced to turn off replies, though Davuluri did later respond to reassure customers that the company was aware of the feedback.

Well my guy have you actually used and I mean really sat down and used your burning pile of slop for an excuse of an OS? I bet you haven‘t because you don‘t have to. Your assistants have to deal with that and they get paid to not complain about it. Meanwhile you get paid to waste oxygen and have lost touch with reality to the point you‘re no longer able to contribute to society in your current position. How sad.

I think part of the problem is they all use Win 11 Enterprise, which actually isn’t that crappy because all of the bloat can be configured and disabled and most likely their IT department has done that.

They should be forced to use Win 11 Home for a while to see how everyone else is viewing things.

Hey don't make fun of him too much, he might have to buy another yacht to make himself feel better.

Holy fuck. I have to paste shit from reports into Outlook daily and that stupid fucking menu that pops up asking about if I want the formatting to match, that you can't get rid of, drives me crazy.

And! And! You want a sync button? It's not just hanging out anymore, you have to find it. Don't like more clicks? That's ok, use the F key. But not F5 like is standard on browsers! Enjoy pressing F9.

First world problems but they're mine!

I'll bet I can make your left eye twitch.

Are you ready?

A "large" amount of information.

Bitch, my computer has 128 gigabytes of RAM. It's a tiny god. The fact that I have as many as 100 cells copied to the clipboard (which is the threshold that triggers this stupid message, if you've ever wondered) is not even a rounding error. I'm sure this was marginally important in 1982 or whenever this was first coded into Excel, but today my computer could lose an entire megabyte of memory or maybe even ten down between the couch cushions and neither of us would notice.

There is still no setting to disable this dumbshit message.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 5 hours ago

i heard one of the biggest complaint, is the taskbar is right in the middle and you cant alter it in the settings. our work is using the ugly W11 right now on thier computers.

[–] duckCityComplex@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago

OMG yes... I wrote a macro that copies thousands of rows and then closes a file and I had to add a step to copy just one cell before closing to work around this stupid message.

Every other piece of software: ctrl+shift+v pastes without formatting.

Microsoft software: ctrl+shift+v does nothing, if you want to paste without formatting you have to use our menus (for some reason).

And on the subject, apparently in a Google document you can not right click to paste without having some add-on installed. Ctrl+v works fine, the context menu shows you paste as an option, but if you try to actually paste through the context menu you get an error saying you need to install an add-on. What the actual fuck?

Probably because they insist on replacing the browser's right click menu with theirs, and web pages can't just grab the clipboard contents for security reasons.

Ctrl+Shift+V does actually paste without formatting in ip to date Office products. I do it a lot.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

I use Outlook, Word, and Publisher at work. Ctrl+shift+v does nothing.
