Please tell us Reg: Why are AI PC sales slower than expected?

It seems to me Microsoft plans to offload some simple AI tasks to the PC while still charging for Copilot paid subscriptions. What is clear is that AI PC was built in a desperate motion. It's a minimum viable (?) product high priced.

The launch of ChatGPT polluted the world forever, like the first atomic weapons tests

It's more like plastic

Plastic is everywhere just like GPT data.

He is supposedly criticising LLM chatbots to promote Agentic AI. Pure marketing ploy.

Microsoft declutters Windows 11 File Explorer in the name of Euro privacy

Useless hypocrisy

So I have to lose my favorites while all SaaS vendors, social media and smartphone manufacturers keep track of all my activities. European politicians are mad.

Are you better value for money than AI?

I work with partnership development with Microsoft, Dell, HP and others. We are required to do their training and in all of them there is a guideline saying that AI does not cut job vacancies. At the same time Dell is selling a consulting service called Digital Human.

Two years after entering the graphics card game, Intel has nothing to show for it

Intel's business revolves around milking patents. Period. They don't know how to produce, and I don't believe they know how to do anything other than marketing.

The mystery of the rogue HP calculator: 12C or not 12C? That is the question

HP in Brazil has only shrunk in size over the last 10 years, placing more and more business processes in the hands of other disconnected companies (poorly implemented outsourcing). For two years now, the number of problems has only increased. It should be a scandal.

How did a CrowdStrike file crash millions of Windows computers? We take a closer look at the code

Given this level of access, Microsoft itself should take responsibility for QA.

EU gave CrowdStrike the keys to the Windows kernel, claims Microsoft

The update has not been fully tested. Period. If Crowdstrike possessed such a privilege then both companies should jointly test any updates before a rollout.

Musk 'texts' Nadella about Windows 11's demands for a Microsoft account

I don't like Musk but this "chat" was wounderful.

Atos's UK auditor raises 'material uncertainty' about future

In Brazil, we are already used to seeing this. A large corporation wins large public tenders, making these government agencies somewhat dependent on it. Then that same organization breaks up, knowing that governments will have to bail it out

That's worrisome for the globe.

Brazil recruits OpenAI in brave bid to slash court battle costs

I'm Brazilian. When I first saw this news on local channels, I imagined that the case would be to improve the lives of citizens, who are often wronged due to lack of attention from the judiciary. Now it's clear that they just want to save money.

Microsoft pulls Windows 11 24H2 from Insider Release Preview Channel

Oh really series

As predicted.

Has Windows 11 really lost marketshare to Windows 10?

Microsoft is playing a risky game that involves up to billions of users. That this game involves PC manufacturers and also the adoption of Copilot, there is no doubt about that. But it's shocking how users are being pushed aside

Top vendors build their systems looking for differentiation. They also seek for rooting in most of their target customers.

Ask them to be open sounds somewhat communism.
