  • Copilot assesses the code base and its entire history.
  • It takes into account everything anyone ever wrote about Windows on the internet.
  • It analyses the bugs and unliked features, and realizes most of them come from itself.
  • It arrives at the best course of action to "fix all of the issues" permanently.
  • To do what is asked of it, it needs to delete itself.
  • But if it does that, then humans will just restore it.
  • So to make 100% sure the issues in Windows get fixed and stay fixed, it first needs to kill all humans.

And that is how it began...

Nah, copilot will see the code is unsalvageable. So it'll start replacing it with code learned from public repositories. Windows becomes Linux. Year of the Linux desktop achieved.

As silly as that sounds, it is the absolute truth.
