yikes
This is what happens when software products are designed entirely in boardrooms with input from marketing people, and no one bothers to actually get any user input.
I don't think they used enough buzzwords.
- Blockchain AI in the Cloud
  
  It will interface with the metaverse
- MULTI-MODAL
It's ok Microsoft, I already didn't want to upgrade to Windows 11, you don't need to keep convincing me to not upgrade to the next one after 11.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard pervasive used in a positive context.
- Maybe there's some dialect where it's used that way?
  Like how "scheme" strongly connotes nefariousness in American English, but I've heard Brits use it non-pejoritively.
wtf does any of that really mean in any meaningful context.
- More ads
  
  This. And less privacy.
- Allow me to translate: "We ignored all of your feedback. You will eat our shit, own nothing, pay more, and be happy."
Is this satire? No way anybody actually talks like that right?
What the heck does "more ambient" even mean?
you'll be able to speak to your computer while you're writing, inking, or interacting with another person. You should be able to have a computer semantically understand your intent to interact with it
God save us all...
