“We think we’re on the cusp of the next evolution, where AI happens not just in that chatbot and gets naturally integrated into the hundreds of millions of experiences that people use every day,” says Yusuf Mehdi, executive vice president and consumer chief marketing officer at Microsoft, in a briefing with The Verge. “The vision that we have is: let’s rewrite the entire operating system around AI, and build essentially what becomes truly the AI PC.”

Microsoft tried enforcing copilot on their developer, I can't find the link but there are some great issues in github where the developers tried arguing with the AI that goes a little like this:

"copilot, can you fix the bug explained in this issue?" "Sure I can, here's a pull request to fis issue #6969" "This code doesn't fix the issue explained, you must do x and y to fix it..." "You are correct! Here's another pull request where I did X and Y to fix the issue!" "No, you didn't..." "You are right! Here's another pull request..."

So on and so forth
