Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" (www.windowscentral.com)

Microsoft's AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has shared his opinion after recent pushback from users online that are becoming frustrated with Copilot and AI on Windows. In a post on X, Suleyman says he's mind blown by the fact that people are unimpressed with the ability to talk fluently with an AI computer.

His post comes after Windows president Pavan Davuluri was recently met with major backlash from users online for posting about Windows evolving into an agentic OS. His post was so negatively received that he was forced to turn off replies, though Davuluri did later respond to reassure customers that the company was aware of the feedback.

And this is why Digit wanted a clarification. Let's make a quick split between "Tech Bro" and Technology Enthusiast.

I'd maybe label myself a "tech guy", and forego the "bro", but I could see other people calling me a "tech bro". I like following tech trends and innovations, and I'm often a leading adopter of things I'm interested in if not bleeding edge. I like talking about tech trends and will dive into subjects I know. I'll be quick to point out how machine learning can be used in certain circumstances, but am loudly against "AI"/LLMs being shoved into everything. I'm not the CEO or similar of a startup.

Your specific and linked definition requires low critical thinking skills, big ego and access to "too much" money. That doesn't describe me and probably doesn't describe Digit's network.

Their whole point seemed to be that the tech-aware people in their sphere are antagonistic to the idea of "AI" being added to everything. That doesn't deserve derision.
