Does Anyone Here Actually Want AI Baked Into The OS?

3 days ago 184.8K views 0 shares

Microsoft's entire user base when they announced Copilot would be embedded into Windows 11. Nobody asked for an AI assistant that uses 2GB of RAM just to tell you the weather, but here we are. The enthusiasm gap between Microsoft's boardroom and actual users has never been wider—they're out here acting like we've been desperately waiting for our OS to hallucinate file locations and suggest we "try turning it off and on again" in a more conversational tone. The collective exodus speaks volumes: some fled to Linux, others just disabled every AI feature they could find in Settings (good luck finding them all). Meanwhile, Microsoft's still convinced this is what innovation looks like.

All Money Probably Went Into Nvidia GPUs

Running Postgres at scale for 800 million users while conveniently forgetting to contribute back to the open-source project that's literally holding your entire infrastructure together? Classic move. PostgreSQL is one of those legendary open-source databases that powers half the internet—from Instagram to Spotify—yet somehow companies rake in billions while the maintainers survive on coffee and GitHub stars. The goose's awkward retreat is basically every tech company when you ask about their open-source contributions. They'll spend $50 million on GPU clusters for their "revolutionary AI chatbot" but can't spare $10k for the database that's been rock-solid since before some of their engineers were born. The PostgreSQL team literally enables trillion-dollar valuations and gets... what, a shoutout in the docs? Fun fact: PostgreSQL doesn't even have a corporate sponsor like MySQL (Oracle) or MongoDB. It's maintained by a volunteer community and the PostgreSQL Global Development Group. So yeah, maybe toss them a few bucks between your next GPU shipment.

Poor Tech Companies They Just Want To Include It Everywhere

Nothing says "we care about the planet" quite like training your next LLM on the entire internet while entire villages ration their drinking water. Tech companies out here acting like their AI features are essential to human survival, meanwhile data centers are chugging water like it's a free resource. "But we NEED to add AI to this toaster app!" Sure, Karen, and those farmers need water to grow food, but priorities, right? The best part? Every product announcement now includes "powered by AI" like it's a badge of honor, while conveniently omitting the environmental impact report. Your smart fridge's ability to suggest recipes based on expired milk is definitely worth draining local aquifers for.

When You Criticize Nvidia

Hardware AI Linux

Say one word about Nvidia's proprietary drivers, their CUDA monopoly, or their Linux support and watch the fanboys materialize like they're being summoned by a GPU mining rig. The company's worth more than most countries' GDP, but somehow needs defending from random devs on Reddit. Meanwhile Linus Torvalds literally gave them the middle finger on camera and they're still printing money faster than their RTX cards can render frames. The funniest part? Half the people defending them can't even afford their GPUs at scalper prices.

A Couple Of Things May Not Be Accurate But Still Funny

The corporate version of "things that don't matter" except they absolutely do matter and we're all lying to ourselves. AMD's driver situation has gotten way better over the years, but let's be real—we all know someone who still has PTSD from Catalyst Control Center. Windows bloatware is basically a feature at this point (looking at you, Candy Crush pre-installed on a $2000 machine). Intel's NM (nanometer) naming was already confusing before they switched to "Intel 7" because marketing > physics. And Sony/MacBook gaming? Sure, if you enjoy playing Solitaire at 4K. The NVIDIA VRAM one hits different though—12GB in 2024 for a $1200 GPU? Generous. And Ubisoft's game optimization is so legendary that your RTX 4090 will still stutter in their open-world games because they spent the budget on towers you can climb instead of performance. Crucial's "consumers don't matter" is just accurate business strategy—they're too busy selling to data centers to care about your gaming rig.

For Profit Company

OpenAI trying to patch the massive leak in their server costs with ads is peak tech company energy. They're out here burning through cash faster than a GPU farm on full load, watching those cloud bills stack up like a memory leak nobody wants to fix. The Flex Tape meme format is *chef's kiss* here. Sure, you've got infrastructure costs that could fund a small country's GDP, but slap some ads on it and call it a business model. Nothing says "we're totally sustainable" like desperately monetizing your product after promising to democratize AI. Remember when they were "open" AI? Good times. Now they're just another company discovering that training models on the entire internet isn't exactly cheap, and VCs eventually want their money back.

Concurrently, Microsoft...

Microsoft Csharp Typescript Javascript Programming

JavaScript and Java are having a nice, civilized conversation while Microsoft casually ignores them to flirt with TypeScript and C#. The absolute AUDACITY! Like watching your friend ditch you mid-sentence to talk to their new besties. Microsoft really said "sorry kids, I've moved on to greener pastures" and left the OG languages on read. The irony? Microsoft literally OWNS TypeScript (they created it) and has been pushing C# for decades. They're not even trying to hide their favoritism anymore. It's giving "sorry I can't hear you over the sound of my superior type systems" energy.

Google really said "let's revolutionize coding with AI!" and then proceeded to create the most EXHAUSTING onboarding experience known to humankind. You're hyped, you download it, and suddenly you're trapped in authentication hell—three login attempts like you're trying to break into Fort Knox. Then BAM, rate limited after 5 prompts because apparently Google thinks you're trying to speedrun the singularity. And the cherry on top? Rumors swirling that Google's own engineers aren't even allowed to use their own creation. The absolute BETRAYAL. So naturally, you crawl back to VS Code with your tail between your legs, defeated by corporate bureaucracy once again. Sometimes the old reliable just hits different.

The Internet's Precarious Tower Of Dependencies

The internet is just a glorified Jenga tower of tech stacked on top of each other. At the very bottom, we've got ASML making the chips that power everything. Then Intel, AMD, and Nvidia making processors while hardware companies like Apple, Dell, and HP build machines around them. The Linux Foundation quietly holds everything up while DNS systems point traffic where it needs to go. Meanwhile, unpaid open source developers are literally carrying the weight of modern digital infrastructure on their backs. AWS and Cloudflare are making billions while V8 and WASM engines power "something happening in the web." And let's not forget Angry Birds flying around Microsoft's chaotic contributions to this technological house of cards. Remember: the next time your app crashes, it's probably because someone removed the wrong block from this precarious tower of dependencies that absolutely nobody fully understands!

Unfortunately Your Role Is Eliminated

When AI takes your job, it doesn't even have the decency to wear a suit. On the left: a tech company coldly announcing layoffs with the classic "unfortunately your role is eliminated" corporate speak. On the right: the culprit - just a neural network equation that probably cost less to run than the CEO's coffee budget. Nothing says "future of work" quite like getting replaced by some Greek letters and summation notation. The real irony? The developers who built these models are probably next on the chopping block. Talk about training your own replacement!

FAANG Is Outdated, Welcome To The GAYMAN Era

The tech industry's obsession with acronyms just got an upgrade. Remember when everyone wanted to work at FAANG (Facebook/Meta, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google)? Well, throw that resume in the trash. Now we've got GAYMAN – Google, Amazon, Y-combinator (I guess?), Meta, Apple, Nvidia. Because nothing says "I'm tracking the market" like reorganizing the same companies every 6 months into increasingly questionable acronyms. Notice how Netflix got kicked to the curb faster than a junior dev who pushed to production on Friday afternoon. Meanwhile, Nvidia swooped in riding that sweet, sweet AI GPU money train. The circle of tech life continues.

Can't Even Hate On Nvidia For This One

The GPU market in a nutshell: AMD abandons their still-in-production RX 6600 like it's last week's leftovers, while Nvidia's over here giving 12-year-old GTX 750 Ti cards the royal treatment with fresh drivers and game optimizations. It's like watching one parent forget their toddler at the grocery store while the other helps their 30-year-old son with his taxes. No wonder Nvidia's charging kidney prices—they're supporting cards older than some of their customers' children!
