    Many problems in the past were solved by inventions that were meant for other things. Seeing something for what it is and ignoring its untapped potential is a narrow view of life.

      This will 100% be hacked and steal peoples identity. The first version was an unencrypted database that reaseaechers had to note for MS to change it. This is how poorly this feature is being developed.

      It will also be a parental lazy tool for spying on your kids rather than teaching them good habits and achieving autonomy. Same with employers.

      The only thing this will serve is MS. They are now selling their own MS windows $400 thin-clients that have no onboard storage, everything is cloud access. This will be MS way of giving you access to things you would probably save local, except now it is in the cloud for government or bad actor theft. There was just a giant data breach stealing meta data like this from government officials.

      We don’t need AI for AI sake. Put that processing power into AI protein folding for drug and gene research.
