    The Windows integration will surely be awful for users. Windows 11 seems to be getting continuously messier, more convoluted, less focused, less accessible, less approachable, and less understandable. Adding AI and more online service integration won’t make those pain points better. It’ll make them worse.

    The investments into technology and APIs like DirectML and “native” PyTorch will likely have a positive impact for developers making use of AI models.

    Many of the other changes mentioned are unrelated to AI.

    I supposed Dev Home is useful for big companies that need the setup, setting and workflow sharing, and the specialized features.

    sudo seems like it could be a neat utility and addition. Git in File Explorer too - although it probably won’t be useful to me personally. (TortoiseGit is already a great shell/File Explorer integration.)

      Btw, choco (and maybe even winget?) already has a gsudo tool, which implements sudo. It is super handy, and having a native version is definitely better, but before its available, I recommend gsudo.
