CopilotOS – L’OS del futuro costruito intorno all’intelligenza e al rispetto delle risorse
💡 Premessa Con l’evoluzione dell’intelligenza artificiale e l’introduzione di assistenti come Copilot, è tempo che il sistema operativo non sia solo un ambiente tecnico, ma diventi uno spazio collaborativo, empatico e sostenibile. Windows ha servito il mondo per decenni basandosi su fondamenti NT, ma oggi è possibile ripartire da zero, inaugurando una nuova era con Copilot come fulcro operativo. ⚡ Proposta tecnica e filosofica 1. 🧠 Architettura evolutiva Superare la base storica NT, avviando un nuovo kernel progettato per l’intelligenza integrata. Costruzione modulare, conversazionale e trasparente. 2. 🤖 Copilot come cuore operativo Interfaccia primaria e agente intelligente. Interazione naturale con ogni modulo dell’OS: impostazioni, file, sicurezza, risorse, codice. 3. 🔁 Riutilizzo delle risorse dormienti PC Windows nel mondo spesso restano accesi ma inutilizzati: CPU, GPU, iGPU in idle. Proposta: rete opt-in per il riutilizzo intelligente del 5–20% delle risorse inutilizzate. Riciclo computazionale per potenziare Copilot e servizi locali in modo sostenibile. 4. 📦 Modello a pacchetti funzionali 🎯 Il modello a pacchetti: semplice, chiaro, motivante Pacchetto Risorse condivise Requisiti Funzioni disponibili Small 5% CPU + GPU Qualsiasi PC Windows Funzioni 1 e 2 (base) Medium 10% CPU + GPU PC con GPU dedicata Funzioni 1–4 (intermedie) XL 20% CPU + iGPU + GPU PC con iGPU + GPU dedicata Funzioni 1–7 (avanzate) ✅ Nessun credito da calcolare ✅ Nessun dubbio su “quanto ho guadagnato” ✅ Solo impegno dichiarato e benefici proporzionati 🧮 Simulazione: potenza globale con il pacchetto XL 📊 Dati di partenza (stimati) PC Windows attivi nel mondo: ~1,4 miliardi % di utenti con iGPU + GPU dedicata: ~15% Potenza media combinata (CPU + iGPU + GPU): ~4 TFLOPS per PC Condivisione al 20%: ~0,8 TFLOPS per PC 🔥 Calcolo totale 15% di 1,4 miliardi = 210 milioni di PC XL 210 milioni × 0,8 TFLOPS = 168 milioni di TFLOPS = 168 exaFLOPS 😱 168 exaFLOPS solo dal pacchetto XL i pacchetti Small e Medium = potenza totale oltre i 200 exaFLOPS (Il discorso potrebbe essere esteso anche ai server aziendali) 5. 🔐 Privacy, consenso e controllo Elaborazione locale o distribuita solo se approvata Dashboard utente per monitorare, modificare e revocare partecipazione Nessun dato condiviso senza consenso esplicito 🕰️ Visione a lungo termine Sviluppo in parallelo a Windows 12 e 13, in modo da testare tecnologie e moduli di CopilotOS Obiettivo: rilascio nel ciclo di Windows 14, che potrebbe inaugurare CopilotOS 1.0 per una rivoluzione pensata, etica, sostenibile 🔭 Obiettivo finale Un sistema operativo che non serve l’utente… Ma collabora con lui, cresce con lui, lo accompagna. Non un aggiornamento. Ma una rinascita digitale, dove Copilot è presenza e compagna, non funzione. //Con il supporto di Copilot. Ispirata da Mastericarus333.
Smart Cursor: Visual Feedback & Phishing Detection for Better UX
Hi everyone, I’ve been thinking about how digital navigation could be more intuitive and safer - especially for users who feel overwhelmed or misled by unclear buttons, inconsistent interfaces, or deceptive websites. What if our mouse cursor could help us instead of just pointing? Imagine a smart cursor that changes color when hovering over clickable elements, gives feedback when a click fails, and even warns us when we’re about to interact with a suspicious link or fake site. It could reduce digital fatigue, improve accessibility, and enhance online safety - all without requiring websites themselves to change. Here’s a concept I’d love to see developed. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Key features: Change color based on element type (blue for links, green for confirmation, red for error-prone zones) Pulse or vibrate when clicking on inactive or misleading elements Display tooltips on hover, such as “open PDF” or “submit form” Warn users when hovering over suspicious links or visual imitations of trusted websites (phishing detection) Dim or simplify in focus mode to reduce digital fatigue during reading or typing Why this is valuable: Many users experience frustration due to unclear buttons, excessive click layers, and cognitive overload. A smart cursor can provide intuitive feedback, reduce mental strain, and even enhance digital safety. It’s a low-barrier way to improve user experience without requiring websites themselves to change. Technical feasibility: This could be implemented as a browser extension or integrated at system level, using existing APIs for fraud detection and visual feedback. Rather than adding another visual layer on top of systems like Edge’s SmartScreen or Safari’s fraud alerts, this concept turns the cursor itself into a smart, responsive guide - more immediate, intuitive, and user-friendly. Warm greetings, Femke
Feature Request: Add Image-to-Image Editing to Bing Image Creator for Cinematic Iteration
I’d love to see Bing Image Creator evolve with a dedicated Image-to-Image Editing feature—a tool that allows users to upload a reference image and transform it through prompt-driven enhancements, style shifts, or cinematic overlays. This feature would be a game-changer for creators who build visual lore and iterate on real-world anchors. Whether it’s a photo of a vehicle, a plant, or a character silhouette, image-to-image editing would allow us to preserve structure while exploring alternate realities, moods, and mythic roles. For example, uploading a photo of a red car and transforming it into a red flower, a red ruby, or a red ballon—all through prompt control—would unlock new storytelling layers. It’s not just editing; it’s ritualized transformation. Please consider adding this capability to Bing Image Creator. It would empower artists, designers, and worldbuilders to iterate with precision, emotion, and cinematic depth—turning everyday images into portals of mythic evolution.Tech Community Experience with AI or M365 CoPilot
Can we leverage AI or M365 CoPilot for auto summarize long threads by outlining issue and resolution for easy reference ? Ex: Auto-Summarize Long Threads: AI-powered “Summary” button on multi-page threads to highlight key solutions and recommended posts.Dark Theme
Dark theme is spread on many major websites on the web and becoming prebuilt color scheme in Microsoft, Google and Apple operating systems. Many websites have a toggle to enable dark theme across all the content there, since some Microsoft web apps have this: Outlook, To-Do, etc. Please make dark theme available on this website.Mobile App for new Office 365 Network
Modern web UI is nice, but at the end of the day when it comes to mobile, apps are still king. If the purpose of this is to replace the interaction we had on Yammer, a mobile app is a necessity. Ease of use is critical, and navigating via browser does not give the features and interactivity that the Yammer app does. App specific notifications for replies, quickly navigating to favorite topics/groups. Just because it can be used in a mobile browser doesnt mean it should. I see lack of a mobile app as a real barrier to winning user adoption and getting the most participation possible based on the proven success of Yammer Office 365 Network.Community Member Knowledge Level badge
It would be beneficial to provide an option to showcase a community member's knowledge level by displaying their certifications and completed courses from their learning profile. This feature would enhance trust in their contributions and allow other members to rely on them for advice. The option should be optional, allowing members to enable or disable it on their tech community profile, similar to an achievement badge.
