January 17, 2024Windows Weekly 864: Word Doesn't Respect Me
Outlook, privacy, and the terribleness of Big Tech
New Outlook Decried as a "Surveillance Tool for Targeted Advertising

One perspective: How terrible are other companies like Google and Meta?

But also, how terrible are Windows 11, Teams, Microsoft Edge, etc?

Supreme Court refuses to hear Epic v. Apple appeals

So, Epic wins on one important count, being able to communicate to their own customers

But Apple is still being terrible because it can be. Will the EU finally take care of this?

Google unlinking its services in the EU, Apple removing pulse ox from Watch in the US, Google comes clean on Incognito, and Microsoft Cloud lets EU customers keep data locally, it just keeps coming
Copilot all the things
Richard correctly predicted that 2024 would be the year that Microsoft stopped talking about AI and started implementing AI. But who could have predicted THIS in the first two weeks (!) of the year?

Copilot Pro for consumers, Copilot for Microsoft 365 for all commercial customers with no baseline, Copilot on mobile, Copilot in Microsoft 365 mobile, Copilot GPT Builder on the way

But there's a real vulnerability for Microsoft and its AI aims here - Too soon, too little may be a mistake

Microsoft and Vodafone, sitting in a tree

Plus: No Copilot AI (SLM) on the Galaxy S24 family? Interesting. Is Google trying to undermine that partnership and bring Samsung back into the fold?
Windows 11
PC sales for 2023: Good news, bad news. OK, it's just bad news

They're doing it again: After almost literally no testing, Microsoft launches new Weather experience on the lock screen and makes it the default

Store app install notifications are in stable now too

Dev: USB 80 Gbps support, auto-start Copilot on 27-inch+ displays, Windows Share (as below) improvements, fixes

Beta: More Windows Share improvements (WhatsApp, Gmail, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn URL sharing), Weather experience on Lock, Microsoft Store with instant arcade games and app install notifications

Release Preview: New KB update gives us our second near-final peek at Moment 5, with more "Ink Everywhere," eye control system support, 7-ZIP support improvements, other fixes

Microsoft will reportedly bring back the Windows Insider Program's Beta Channel for Windows 10 because they were just kidding about that whole "no new features" thing

Dev Home comes to Windows 10
Xbox
January's Game Pass titles, still no Activision Blizzard

Xbox fixes Baldur's Gate save bug

AI
OpenAI responds to the NYT and... yikes. Did AI write this? It admits that ChatGPT does what the NYT claimed
