I think they really meant it at the time - but needed Windows 11 in order to really shove AI down people's throats.
Windows 11 came out before AI entered the dogma.
They are using Windows 11 to push TPU to control your hardware for reason that will become clearer in the future. They also pushed it to sell new hardware and thus more licenses. Windows 11 demands you buy a new laptop despite your perfectly functioning one.
We've hit the point where PCs aren't getting that much faster, and so people aren't upgrading as much. This makes a few powerful people very upset.
