A few days ago, Davuluri shared his excitement about it on his official X handle. He seemed very eager to reveal what the company has in mind at the upcoming Ignite event regarding the agentic OS plans.

Unfortunately for Microsoft and Davuluri, the response has been overwhelmingly negative, so much so that the comments on that X post have now been disabled.

Made me laugh. :)

The way I see it, they think GenAI is the new portal to information, the way search has been for the last 25-30 years. They want to control that portal, because it’s worth trillions over time.

This is why they’re cramming it into everything and worrying about use cases later. It’s a land grab.

    That kinda makes sense. Thank you for sharing your optics.

    I heard that phrase "optics" for the first time in the TV show Succession. Is it something that ordinary people use or just wealthy people?

    I work as a senior IT Operations kind of job, with a 15 year background in IT support. I was trying to thank him for his perspective without sounding sarcastic ☺️

    Edit: perspective might have been more apt.
