    I couldn’t think of one single scenario where this might be remotely handy.

    I literally gave you one - HDR toggling. You disregarded it because you didn’t want there to be any reasons.

    Here’s another - you could ask copilot to check your emails for an invite to a party that you are expecting, add the party to your calendar, create an item on your to-do list to get a present, and forward the invite to your partner.

    How’s that? Is that not something that could be useful?

      1. Why should i toggle hdr off?
      2. Takes a second to do with a mouse or keyboard

      As to the other example: Sure, useful. To people who just don’t care about privacy (Which is kinda weird from someone with the nick “freedomadvocate”). As MS should not have access to my mails, my calender or my to-do-list. And especially not my contacts :-) Besides you’re just assuming one would exclusively use MS-products to do that. Try that shit with non-ms-products and it becomes just a waste of time.

      But for people unable to do so “normally” or who would save tremendous amounts of time there might be a good use. But that’s what i said at the start. Very niche use-case.

        Seriously? Because not everything supports HDR lol

        Takes a second to do with a mouse or keyboard

        If you know the keyboard shortcut, sure. With a mouse how do you do it in a second while you’re in a game?

        As to the other example: Sure, useful.

        Great! So there we have it, you recognise that you were wrong. We got there in the end, hooray!

        To people who just don’t care about privacy

        How exactly do you think your privacy is being eroded? It’s all on-device and you have privacy settings to control what MS can learn from.

        As MS should not have access to my mails, my calender or my to-do-list

        “MS” don’t have to, just copilot on your device, without any feedback to MS.

        Try that shit with non-ms-products and it becomes just a waste of time.

        AI can already interact with third party products.
