"Integrating AI where it's most meaningful, with craft and focus: You will see us be more intentional about how and where Copilot integrates across Windows, focusing on experiences that are genuinely useful and well‑crafted. As part of this, we are reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points, starting with apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets and Notepad." - they put AI in the snipping tool? Hahahaha. Oh my. Well done.

So what I am hearing:
* They WEREN’T intentional about where they put Copilot.
* They WEREN’T focused on making it genuinely useful.
* They WEREN’T doing it in a well-crafted way.
* They INCLUDED unnecessary entry points.

Why wasn’t this the strategy from the very beginning?

Oh right, because it wasn’t about the end user at all until it backfired on them. It was about market dominance.

@lonespelunker what bugs me the most about these things is that there is no one that says no (scared?). What happened to their engineering department?

I don’t imagine product managers felt they could safely tell the brass that adding Copilot to their little corner of Windows was a genuinely stupid idea when it was a steady drumbeat of “Copilot! Copilot! Copilot!” from every management tier above them.
