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.

When I was much younger, I wanted that idealistic thing too. I was so optimistic about new tech that would come out. Decades of companies working on promising tech and turning it into a dystopian or anti-user mess have beaten that spirit out of me. I don't want "smart" anything, and I certainly don't trust any of the companies possibly capable of doing these things to be in charge of actually doing it.

Believe me I’m old enough to be set in my ways too. Trends come and go and the way I work hasn’t changed much. But that is also the force of habit. Even if the perfect AI were available today and I could talk to my computer for most tasks I’d have a hard time adjusting, even if I can see the potential and think that current workflows will someday seem very antiquated and inefficient.
