Windows Recall is secretly installed and enabled on non-Copilot+PCs (Privacy Nightmare)
Set up a new pc for someone today. Turned off all the OneDrive backup options. Rebooted and copied their files from a USB to SATA adapter. They turned the backup settings back on again!
Can't trust Microsoft.

Sorry. You're not a tenant of this place. Maybe try another account with the same email address but a different password that is from a home or work or student or was made by your employer or by you or is attached to your domain name, and give us the code on your authenticator and the one we just pretended to email you and sorry something went wrong and we need to quit and you need teams classic or modern or your OneDrive for business or personal or the sync service isn't running..
Or local account.

You could probably get electrical energy that is needed to run a gym (lights, accountant pc, vending machine) if you just install generators in all of this gym's exercise equipment
Might be difficult.
Bicycle riders make 30-70 watts from memory. That'll run a few LED lights, but if you want the fridge you need five cyclists, and for the aircon about 30 to 50 I think.

Already starting to happen a bit.
The AI only fools us into thinking it's intelligent because it picks the most likely text response based on what it's read before. But often, the output is confidently wrong as it's really just a parlor trick.
Now, since it's starting to ingest more if it's own output, the definition of 'what is the most likely response' has been poisoned a little from ingesting that formerly wrong response.
Add in all the blog spam, the fake but funny reddit answers etc, and the system - which doesn't actually think - starts to get more and more deranged.

Mostly because they needed a wired headset to act as the FM antenna since it needs a decent length to capture FM compared to the much higher UHF and GHz frequencies that the mobile network uses.
