I recently understood why so many people are anti-AI and think AI is a scam.

It's because they are Windows users and being shoved piss poor Copilot implementations down their throats by Microsoft.

I have no doubt that Microsoft is using the cheapest(worst) cloud model possible for free Copilot users or they're running a tiny local model on the NPU when available.

These people aren't running Opus 4.6 or GPT 5.4. No wonder they're so anti-AI and can't see the why there is AI hype.

People aren't anti-AI because of model performance. They're anti-AI because LLMs are being shoved into absolutely everything.

So yes, this is also about Copilot, but not in the way you think it is.

I live in the Mac world. LLMs aren't shoved into absolutely everything. I do not have experience with Windows.

There's multiple reasons. An older family member told me she dislikes AI because she's worried it will give her wrong information or make stuff up.

The hallucination issue put a big dent in AI's reputation for non-technical older people who do not take kindly to being lied to by a machine.
