Just because the UI exists in file explorer doesn’t mean the data processing is happening locally. It’s likely happening on MS’s cloud. Maybe some actions happening locally on new machines with NPU chips
Comment on Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File Explorer

I want to believe you, but I’ve been burned before.

I’m not sure what you mean. I’m saying that this work is almost for sure being sent to Microsoft’s servers, which is certainly a bad thing. That is burning anyone who uses it

I thought you meant they wouldn’t be processing your files locally. You’re saying they’re taking all of your local files and sending them to the cloud though?

I wouldn’t bet on it.

I 100% expect so. It’s much easier and cheaper to do it this way and also gives them data to train copilot further
I might be wrong, though
