Recently, Microsoft has been aggressively promoting its AI assistant, Copilot, across social media platforms. The company claims that by integrating this tool into the Edge browser and Windows 11, it is responding to users' calls for a Copilot mode in work - related scenarios. Nevertheless, this marketing approach has backfired, drawing a wave of intense criticism from users.

Numerous users have voiced their opinion that Microsoft's promotion is completely out of sync with real - world needs. Some have gone as far as to say that they've never asked for these AI features in the first place and would prefer to learn how to get rid of them. An experienced IT professional also weighed in, stating that no IT experts want Copilot to be integrated into Windows.

Despite the barrage of criticism, the Microsoft team has chosen to selectively respond to a handful of positive comments while turning a blind eye to the vast majority of comments filled with doubts and protests.
