Yes this is actually a requirement from windows if they want to make sure they can legally call their laptops “ai powered” like if a cereal company wants to call their product Chocolate xyz, they have to contain a certain amount of cocoa.
As far as I am concerned this is just one more button that can break or one more thing I have to turn off on the laptops before I send them out.
Our Precision 5490s came with these Bixby ass buttons.

Dell is plenty capable of making their own bad decisions, but this one is coming down from Microsoft.
Nope. Time to buy a Mac or a Framework and never again install Windows.

Replacing a (slightly) useful key with one that will actively piss me off if I ever accidentally press it. I hope I never have to use one of these abominations.

i rarely use the right side alt and ctrl. but to have a button that does something completely different if pressed while in an app would drive me nuts. i’m sure it’d have the ability of being remapped. but imagine pressing it by accident while in a full screen app/presentation and then copilot pops up doing random stuff. i’d be annoyed. only time i use the windows key is to purposely get out of a full screen app when alt tab doesn’t work.

Don’t use control alt L whatever you do.

I think it’s a great Idea.
Having copilot on the desktop in win 11 made me actually use it way more often (vs logging into chat got website).
Just think of it as a cortana that is actually useful…
I use it a ton for basic search as well as creative stuff and it’s quite good for technical support.
Try sending an an obscure tech issue you are having and it will scour those 4 year old posts on Tom’s hardware for you and just give the answer…

Like years of Samsung phones with bixby buttons, and the accompanying apps to disable them. Microsoft will give it up eventually.

The button actually sends LShift + Win + F23.
You can remap it with tools like AutoHotkey

Okay I’ll just use my external keyboard.
Ew
For what it’s worth, Microsoft already stopped shipping surfaces with right ctrl keys for a while, replacing it with a “contextual menu” key
What if we used the copilot to destroy the copilot?
