I wouldn't be surprised if they just started calling it Copilot at some point. I could see them renaming their "agents" after big feature updates, much like we do with hurricanes which would be fitting given their history of breaking things with each KB.

I've been a Windows user my whole life. I support 5000+ Windows devices along with the whole Microsoft enterprise suite. It's been bad with them, but there have usually been patches at some point or at least community discovered workarounds. However, Microsoft's reckless abandon into AI legitimately worries me.

I'm finally making the switch to Linux for personal devices.
