Chrome, Spotify, Zoom, WhatsApp, Blender, Affinity Suite, DaVinci Resolve and many more now run natively on Arm
“Meanwhile we’re too lazy to even port our basic casual games like Minesweeper or Solitaire to ARM even though we’re shipping our own Surface line of tablets with ARM CPUs since 12 years. Fun fact, we’re shipping native ARM versions of Minecraft on iPhone, iPad, Android, and even low-performace hardware like Nintendo Switch but our own top-notch Copilot+ ARM PCs: lolnope.”
Wow!
I can’t wait until there is nothing left of Windows except Copilot and onedrive

hahaha
I know most people are over AI, as am I, but if we’re gonna have it, I’m glad to see there’s a focus on it being local
It isn’t though
Copilot is a cloud service
The goal is to make it work on device in the next 4 years. That’s the point of an “AI PC”
Why would Microsoft want that? They make money from the cloud. There is a reason they want you to move to Azure.
Because they don’t want to pay for running AI in the cloud.
But they DO want that sweet sweet customer data. If you think there’s not going to be some sort of user data and behavior profiling bullshit going on at the very least, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.
They want you to foot the electric bill for the LLM processing, they’re still going to collect your data. Double-win for MS!
It’s not going to be private lol
The MS implementations won’t, but once they build the capability, we can make our own
That’s not how that works. Also we have our own. Its called ollama
Its only partly local and i bet only because the alternative is to expensive.
Just look at the kinda crap windows pulls today.
I thought i had disabled pretty much all the spyware, them on the microsoft online dashboard i found
- full machine specs
- A list off all applications installed
- edge search history
Btw, did you know that anything typed in start/search now counts as a search in edge? I wander whats behind that move.
In other words i understand much of the ai may function on a local level but it be fully integrated with cloud systems and you can safely assume a full record of your prompts and uses is stored on microsoft servers and delivered to bill gates for reading before bed.
full machine specs
just fyi, every website you visit has access to this, it’s not private
Depends on your browser extensions, you can even pretend to be a phone if you want. ;)
And also not the same level of detail as microsoft is just lifting from your hardware like motherboard model and manufacturer, how many drives, how they are formatted and how much space is used on each of em.
Btw, did you know that anything typed in start/search now counts as a search in edge? I wander whats behind that move.
It searches for everything you search so that by the time you press enter, it already has the result of the last one, hence seeming faster.
What i meant is, what good reason is there for local search to always count as a Bing internet search.
If i wanted to look up something online id open up an internet browser with the search engine of my preference.
Spamming my local search results with online rubbish is the opposite of value, even micrsoft devs acnowledge this which is why microsoft powertoys has macbook style local searchbar thats way faster and better at finding your files and offline.
Well, it does search online too. That the implementation is atrocious is a different thing.
Yeah, that is a big deal for privacy reasons. There is no reason one needs to send such information to companies.
