Microsoft’s AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has shared his opinion after recent pushback from users online that are becoming frustrated with Copilot and AI on Windows. In a post on X, Suleyman says he’s mind blown by the fact that people are unimpressed with the ability to talk fluently with an AI computer.
His post comes after Windows president Pavan Davuluri was recently met with major backlash from users online for posting about Windows evolving into an agentic OS. His post was so negatively received that he was forced to turn off replies, though Davuluri did later respond to reassure customers that the company was aware of the feedback.

If you’re hanging out with what most call a tech bro, I’m kind of impressed bit still don’t really care for what you say.
A tech bro is someone who puts a bunch of stickers for large corporations on their laptop instead of stickers for open source meetups on their laptop.
Ah, right. Thanks. Very different beast to the tech enthusiasts I was thinking of.
Nobody knows everyone else’s definition of everything. Many might call the people you know tech enthusiasts or tech heads or something else. No big deal.
And this is why Digit wanted a clarification. Let’s make a quick split between “Tech Bro” and Technology Enthusiast.
I’d maybe label myself a “tech guy”, and forego the “bro”, but I could see other people calling me a “tech bro”. I like following tech trends and innovations, and I’m often a leading adopter of things I’m interested in if not bleeding edge. I like talking about tech trends and will dive into subjects I know. I’ll be quick to point out how machine learning can be used in certain circumstances, but am loudly against “AI”/LLMs being shoved into everything. I’m not the CEO or similar of a startup.
Your specific and linked definition requires low critical thinking skills, big ego and access to “too much” money. That doesn’t describe me and probably doesn’t describe Digit’s network.
Their whole point seemed to be that the tech-aware people in their sphere are antagonistic to the idea of “AI” being added to everything. That doesn’t deserve derision.
