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.
Hard to put a stupid offhand remark re vidja games on the same level as a man that handed mobile computing to Apple and later Google, who wasn’t even trying to compete, was just strategically releasing Android as a market disruptor.
It wasn’t just the one offhand comment. His entire attitude was “always online and a mandatory camera attached to your device are just how it is, loaning games is gone forever, and you’re stupid for even questioning any of it.” His decisions singlehandedly tanked the popularity of the Xbox brand so hard they’re still feeling the effects one whole console generation later.
