Microsoft warnt davor, dass die agentische KI von Windows 11 Malware auf Ihrem PC installieren könnte: „Aktivieren Sie diese Funktion nur, wenn Sie die Auswirkungen auf die Sicherheit verstehen.“

sooo they added a malware installation tool is what they are saying? very innovative
Where in God’s name is Microsoft going. When the official advice for a Windows feature is basically ‘turn this on if you don’t value your computer,’ you’ve left the tech highway and crashed straight into clown country
Windows going ‚Agentic‘ is just opening so much risk.
r/nottheonion ?
How can I understand the security implications if the AI can take the reins from me and install malware by itself?
So it can be disabled? Good.
An Agentic OS is perfect for non-technical users. If it can’t be done securely it shouldn’t be done at all.
AI hacked my bank account and spent all my money on hookers and blow
This is not reassuring
/r/nottheonion is indistinguishable from the regular news at this point
What the hell is going on in Microsoft? They just keep fucking up.
Who needs mwarw when you have malware in the form of agentic AI on your operating system.. Oh and are they still doing that recall bullshit? Because that’s going to be next level.
I wasn’t going to enable it in the first place, but thanks anyway
Microsoft always gives me ideas for features to add in Wintoys. They can’t fix performance, or give us a local account option, but they are ready to risk OS security for stock price.
I’m not going to risk any of that. I’m keeping off that shitty copilot, one drive, Cortona and everything I can.
Linux is looking more tempting every day
They basically know AI is hallucinating and it’s still garbage in many ways, but must push it either way because competition. AI bubble bursting will be fun.
So Clippy’s finally getting its revenge for all the bullying it took over the decades….
For a company with a less-than-stellar security record thus far, one can only say, “bold move, cotton.”
Yeah, no thanks, I like my lap top dumb and obedient.
The AI bubble can’t burst soon enough for me.
So who is this for then? I am a security professional, I design secure systems and break shit like this for a living, and this is literally the LAST thing I would want my OS to do. IT teams are going to instantly block that shit on all corporate devices, and regular consumers are being told not to use it, so what the fuck are we doing here?
This bubble can’t burst soon enough
No one asked for this
This is true of a lot of AI generative stuff. You have to watch what code libraries it includes, if you ask it to do something complicated, because it guesses based on names, and there are people who KNOW that, and use it to their advantage.
Windows IS malware.
Dear Microsoft, what the fuck are you doing?
So this is an opt-in feature? From all the fear it seemed that this was enabled by default.
Hey, Microsoft, how about you not install it on my machine?
So do I upgrade from Win10 or no?
Imagine elderly folks who have early to advanced signs of dementia, or that are simply not that great with technology, that are still using their devices. Real useful to f them over. Good job!
Ps. I speak from experience as the offspring of two older folks who has to solve their computer problems or generally help them out. They have not touched AI and are not interested… Well other than the brainrot generated stories on youtube.
Hoping the bubble pops — not that AI disappears entirely from everywhere, but rather starts to be implemented where it matters and having a very clear option to opt out/uninstall. Just understanding how damaging some data centers are for those who live around them & the environmental impact… And the sheer amount of garbage images and videos being generated. Is this purposely being permitted to divert people’s attention? Anyway…
So is the feature disabled by default? 😂
How long until they silently enable it by default during an update I didn’t ask for either.
So they wanted to scare me with the win10 Security implications into letting in the Trojan horse of bullshit
These straight-up awful decisions that Microsoft is doing… I mean how the fuck are these features even getting approved, how are these bright minds sitting in a meeting room saying „yep, this is what consumers want“ is beyond me
Easier for malware authors. All the gotta do is flip a bit, enable this trash and have free reign over the system, lol
