I still run Windows 7 on my office machine. Some time ago I began noticing that when I save a file, like a website, Windows predicts where I plan to put it, often with disturbing accuracy. For example, I have a folder under a 'Politics' folder and it is titled 'Secret agendas' and in it I have subfolders for various entities. Well, I entered into the action of saving a website about the WEF, and Win 7 leaped ahead on by itself selecting the 'Zionists' subfolder under 'Secret Agendas'. This was not the only time that Windows decided by itself what categories to use. I take this to mean that my machine's Windows got updated at some point to use outside AI to monitor my machine, and that AI knows about connections in the world.
On the Windows 11 machine lent to me by my current contract employer, I see that Microsoft has deeply embedded predictive AI all over, and it is constantly monitoring what I am doing. Creepy as hell. And it constantly makes intrusive suggestions about what to do. Outlook pops up notices like "You have an unfinished task!' and it nags. I never set a task, it reads my emails and extracts meaning from them. Holy shit, that is creepy. I hate Win 11 anyway. The awful UI design flows in it.
