"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Microsoft forces AI into Notepad, users say, “Leave it alone” (infosec.pub)

Windows 11’s Notepad continues to get Copilot-powered AI features – a handy addition to a tool whose main appeal has always been simplicity and minimalism. Not all users are happy, however, with some saying AI features are overkill.

From the Notepad++ home page:

Based on the powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API

Trying to port it to other platforms is thus nonsensical. It would have to be a ground-up rewrite without the Windows API dependency. And there are indeed various other projects for Linux and other platforms that pretty much replicate its functionality, but they're by definition not going to be Notepad++.
