So…yeah. Seems MS, in their endless wisdom has decided to rename their virtual desktop software, called before as “Remote Desktop” (and good luck trying to find issues with that that are not related to the old RDP tool MTSC.exe) to… “Windows App”. Perfect. Now everything will look like everything, and there’s no way to ever try to search for help for it. Next in line, I guess they can call it just “App”. I’m sure that will help everyone.

        AI still needs to be able to identify the thing you’re asking about. The AI still searches for things if it’s not already in its memory-it even tells you when it’s scanning different sources.

        That all breaks with bad seo

          It’s built into windows it’s a windows feature that’s broken. Once it crashes it will ask you to have Ai look at it for a fix.

      This would probably matter more if every search for “windows 10 problem XY” wouldn’t turn up 100% garbage from their support forums anyway.

          Can you run sfc /scannow? Post the entire contents of your event log. Okay, now that you have done this I will proceed to not reply to this thread anymore.

          Here’s a random non-Microsoft article I found on the web, and which you’ve probably already seen

        AI still uses SEO or it’s database equivalent to figure out what you’re talking about about. Or to scan for new info - which they currently do

          Yeah, retrieval-augmented generation and AI web-search will still run into some trouble with this. But if it knows about it in its weights, then it will be fine.

      Yes, but I feel that’s strategic to make us feel we need AI to do the work for us.

      I saw a video recently they said the google search being bad is intentional. Because then you have to spend more time on google, thus seeing more ads.

      That’s a bold move cotton. Let’s see how it plays out
