I was worried that AI wasn't being crammed into enough things. Thank god it is Microsoft, that most competent and ethical of companies, who are leading the way to the sunny OS AI uplands.

Well, at a guess, it will be when japanese people feel that they can provide for more children. Maybe that will happen when there is more space for them because the population has reduced.

Now we just need an AI which can record the broadcasts and chop out the DJ audio part and the ads.

Cool! That has put my mind at rest. Glad to see capitalism and the free market are working to make everyone's lives better.

Hmmm... interesting. How false does the false data have to be for it to Darwin you out of the gene pool?
Most of what the average human believes is false? Well, whenever you specialise in any subject (art, medicine, engineering, agriculture), you find that the "common knowledge" of the subject is false or at least wildly incomplete, so if your brain has more "facts" outside your speciality than within, you may have a majority of false beliefs whilst still bein highly educated and a functional human.

Stolen focus is okay, there is interesting stuff about sleep and brains. The parts about social media techniques and motivations will be familiar ground to slashdotters.

For a true meritocracy, the employers would have to know what they want the employees to do to achieve the holy goal of moar profitz, only then could they select the most meritorious employees.
Pie in the sky.

"telemetry doesn't require any meaningful CPU hardware in the slightest"

It may not require it, but if Microsoft have coded it, it probably uses all the resources it can grab. They probably dropped Minesweeper because they couldn't get it to run in less than 2Pb ram.

Its a smegging garbage pod!

There is no way what we laughingly call "AI" could possibly wipe out humans unless we were stupid enough to rely on AI to control oh yeah, I get it now.

The text input uses AI to create the layout for a 3D environment which models the real world perfectly with no clipping and accounts for all the fluid dynamics, vibration resonance, bending loads and production tolerances etc. This is then run millions of times with no human supervision and produces reliable results.

I just looked at the internets and the internet winter seems to have lastes 24 years and counting.

An even better test ground is shown here.

It is a car park with only autonomous vehicles from the same company displaying how they intelligently co-operate to manoeuvre in the most efficient manner with no outside interference from pesky human drivers.

Shirley "further enshittify" ?

Blimey, did they finally take notice of the last three decades of Gen X's warnings about surveillance capitalism, spyware, malware, phishing, corrupt companies, corrupt government, corrupt law enforcement, etc , or did they they come up with it independently?
