Because AI is your shiny new hammer and everything is a nail now, so you really, really need to use it…
On a more serious note: Cramming AI into everything (and even inventing new stuff that absolutely needs AI for some reason) and then making people heavily pay for AI once they can’t escape that bullshit anymore is basically the only way to ever get the insane investments pumped into the AI bubble back. And even that is highly questionable.
Putting AI into software that doesn’t need it isn’t even registering on the insanity scale anymore given that there is now ‘AI included’ advertising on fucking tooth brushes.

Notepad had a “Copilot” button at one point. No clue if it’s still there though since I’m fully on Linux now.

The button isnt there anymore but the functionality is more hidden without the name Copilot under “advanced settings” or sth. I read that somewhere.
