This has to be the idea of the century
If they did this from the start it might’ve sounded fine, but now it just feels like they’re trend-chasing after Apple Intelligence…
I mean they’re already trend-chasing with the Windows 11 UI.
Just get the confusing branding over with and call it “Intelligence for Windows Live Business Premium”
I mean that’s standard practice. If a feature, product, or company develops a bad reputation, just rename it. If your market is large enough there will be enough people not paying attention to not realize it’s the same product.
Give it another 6 months and it’ll be “Skynet for xbox” or something similarly worse.
“have you tried painting it pink, then maybe they will like it”
Bro looked at apples corny branding and envied it 😭🤞
No interest in Windows at all, but Copilot is actually a great name for what the product is supposed to be/being marketed as. Windows Intelligence sounds like a return to the very old-school long-winded style of Microsoft branding.
Agreed, Copilot was one of if not the best named AI I think. Why they would want to rebrand it to something so bland so quickly is beyond me
Because it’s Microsoft and they have to compulsively rename things every few years.
I have no love for Microsoft but their naming is one of the worst parts… Let’s make a game console! We’ll call it Xbox!.. That sold well let make another! We’ll call it xbox360… Time for a refresh on the gaming console! We’ll call it Xbox one… Another refresh but this time let’s make two versions! We’ll call them Xbox one series s and x box one series s!
Or our popular ide is bloated and people are asking for a light weight ide… What’s our current ide called? Visual studio but alot of people abbreviate it to vs! Let’s call the new one vscode! Do they have anything in common or share functionality or shortcuts? No
Don’t get me started on windows… 3.1… 95…nt…98…2000…me…vista…7…8…10…11 like wtf???
At least Xbox made some sense, it was originally going to be called the DirectXbox, thankfully they shortened the name to something catchier.
It sounds invasive. Like it’s a private intelligence agency and not a chat bot.
Perfectly on brand for Windows then lol
That would be an oxymoron.
Sometimes a great idea just comes to you out of nowhere at all!
First big tech slapped “powered by AI!” on everything and now - a mere 2 years later - it has been exposed as nothing but a safety risk without a tangible benefit, they’re trying their best to hide it’s mere existence while still dumping it into everything. They just can’t help it.
that is pitiful
Excellent to see that Microsoft’s product strategy continues to just be a flailing mess.
“Windows Intelligence” is an oxymoron, just like whoever came up with this rebranding.
I think we can drop the oxy part
Remember ‘Microsoft Works’?! The home version of ‘Office’ almost entirely incompatible with everything.
Microsoft try not to copy everything Apple does challenge: Impossible
At least “Apple Intelligence” is cute because the initials for it are A.I.
It will be as successfull as the twitter to x rebranding
