A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's literally just the Edge feature transplanted onto windows. I wouldn't be surprised if they integrated Edge/WebView2 into Explorer just to do this.

I've been under the impression that it's been the plan all the time: have a "system-wide" AI assistant.

And honestly, I bet other OSs are going to follow suit (Apple, Linux... Android already kind of has it).

It's honestly a downgrade from Cortana. Not that I used that either..
