"Woke" is not the insult they think it is because the antonyms are: lulled, hypnotized, mesmerized, et al. The racist right would have me believe that stupor is better? It is to laugh, because in their efforts to cast themselves as morally superior, they demonstrate their fragile world-view. They cannot handle change and are brittle and bitter because of that.

Microsoft Co-Pilot
Here's my take on the Microsoft Co-Pilot AI issue.
1) Is it possible Microsoft is so disinterested in the consumer PC space it's willing to cannibalize those sales, so Windows evolves even more into an Enterprise product
2) Consumer focus is on the XBOX. If the future plans for releasing COD for the next Nintendo Switch 2 is any indication, other platforms too.
3) It's all about Azure (and virtual Office) for Microsoft now - that's where it makes its money - the enterprise.
