Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it

  in a transparent and optional way it could be good

  You people say this, but then MS ponders the release of a local-only Recall and everybody loses their shit…

    People don’t trust Microsoft to honor their promises. Hmm, I wonder why… 🤔

      Yeah, over shit that happened 30 years ago…

    that does not make it transparent, neither optional.

      If you only interpret “transparent” as “open source”, then yeah, I agree.

      If, however, you also consider “well documented” as “transparent”, then what exactly is the deal?

      And it’s already going to be opt-in.

        Technically, yes. what I really mean is that people can look at it and determine it does not want to fuck people over, but that probably can’t really be done practically without it being open source.

        If, however, you also consider “well documented” as “transparent”, then what exactly is the deal?

        I don’t trust microsoft with having an accurate, honest documentation on something like this. but this reminded me of another aspect that even being open source does not really solve: what about changes in the future? I could be reading the docs or the source now, but I won’t even get to know when it updates.

        And it’s already going to be opt-in.

        I have my doubts about whether they’ll keep it that way

  I mean online in the same way when you install today it will grab updates (so optional) and I don’t want all linux distros to be like this of course. I will be excited by what creative ways it can be used. I would be very annoyed if any linux distro were using a remote part of chat except for downloads. I doubt it would given how expensive it would be.
