"Windows Intelligence": Microsoft may drop Copilot in major AI rebranding

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I have no love for Microsoft but their naming is one of the worst parts... Let's make a game console! We'll call it Xbox!... That sold well let make another! We'll call it xbox360... Time for a refresh on the gaming console! We'll call it Xbox one... Another refresh but this time let's make two versions! We'll call them Xbox one series s and x box one series s!
Or our popular ide is bloated and people are asking for a light weight ide... What's our current ide called? Visual studio but alot of people abbreviate it to vs! Let's call the new one vscode! Do they have anything in common or share functionality or shortcuts? No
Don't get me started on windows.. 3.1... 95...nt...98...2000...me...vista...7...8....10...11 like wtf???
At least Xbox made some sense, it was originally going to be called the DirectXbox, thankfully they shortened the name to something catchier.
Yes... And the sequels? I still don't know if Xbox one s or x box one x is the higher end model....
Probably the more expensive one.
Granted but still bad naming convension. In comparison which is better Playstation 4 or Playstation 5?
NT was a fully seperate product from 95 and 98, using a different kernel. 95 -> 98 -> Me was the old kernel, NT -> 2000 -> XP -> Vista -> 7 -> 8 -> 10 -> 11 is the other line. Me was a play on Millenium Edition, so that line was just numbered by year. The NT series names are a bit wonky, though. The reason for skipping 9 involves legacy program support and bad coding practices from ye olde programmers. 7 was kind of an arbitrary number to begin with, though.
7 was the version if you only counted the "best ofs" Windows 3, 95, XP, Vista, 7.
In addition to ME and NT, they also had CE.
CEMENT.
Yeah, I understand the whole different kernal thing but that's the type of thing that the average consumer shouldn't have to know to follow your program naming scheme.
I just enjoy that I can call them "xbone"
