I hate to be the one defending AIs, but these things aren't made to predict basically random events. Anyone who tries to use AIs as gambling assistants is monumentally dumb, even dumber than the AIs.

To these who will say that a horse race isn't random, the AI as a basically statistical machine has no way of knowing the real factors which determine the race's outcome.

Why are you conflating browsing the Internetz (with its fishing, etc) and logging to Windows? These are two conceptually different things. And yes, what MS and you present is a solution to a non-existing problem. I can use a hardware-backed password vault when browsing the Net, and a local account for logging to Windows, and my security will be no weaker than what you describe, with the added benefit that I don't give MS, whom I don't trust a bit, a kill switch for my own computer.
