Microsoft: We're going to arbitrarily require TPM and SecureBoot and say that makes Windows 11 more secure even though that's a feature of your motherboard, not our operating system.

Also Microsoft: In Windows 11 the file explorer program depends on a program that periodically sends us screenshots of your screen.

So secure!

Even Windows exes work on Linux now. It took me some time and learning but I got Wine to work with some program from my walkie talkie's manufacturer and it involves serial programming over USB.

I mean, if I could theoretically take a snapshot of the entire Internet I'd rather do it now than later because there's just gonna be more AI later.

They said it felt like a possibility. I don't believe that implies they thought they wouldn't be fired. We can think something is a possibility and prepare for it and still be shocked when it actually happens.

I'm going to be honest with you. They feel no worse today than they have for the past ~5+ years or so. SEO blog spam with a dozen paragraphs to tell you exactly one line of information have been around for quite a while. Many of these articles felt generated either from crappy writers or "AI" tools predating the LLMs we have now.
