This presentation is just steeped in degenerative AI-it’s a black box with no modularity and no way to upgrade it yourself (add more memory, a better processor, etc.). All those “vibe slop” users will be thrilled with this, since their brains have been completely rotted away by AI.
Compared to this, even Apple looks like the king of repairability and expandability.

This is such a hypocritical statement at 12:35 why would I need the extra thermal headroom for the 1%, if I get 99% percent on battery. Mind you, the tdp cant be more than 40 watts sustained otherwise battery life will be abbysmal!

They keep pushing ai features onto the customers 🤦🏾♂️ this would be like tvs still pushing 3d features to tvs even though consumers were not interested.. I have no trust in their or any other Ai agent.

@skrimaging
October 7, 2026 at 8:53 pm
At this point, a real selling point would be a way to delete Copilot altogether. If Microsoft would come out and announce that when setting up your new PC, you can choose wether you want Copilot or not.
@skrimaging

At this point you don’t have add anything to make windows better. Just give us old windows 7 back with security patches and application support. It is miles better than windows now.

So, if you are a stock broker, you can direct agents to monitor stocks, buy and sell
And agents can use an algorithm in how too take risks and make profits for the broker.

@karmatraining
October 8, 2026 at 7:04 pm
Love how the Surface Laptop Ultra is basically just an identical clone of the Macbook Pro but about 10 years late, and with screaming fans and low battery life (and CoPilot! Joy!)
@danielpowers4787
October 8, 2026 at 7:04 pm
The improved search actually looked good until they were like “and of course, you will have to fight past Copilot with every keystroke just to use your computer”
@MrRaksaChan
October 8, 2026 at 8:57 pm
I got very tired of copilot and how windows performance. I have core ultra 9 295H and still feel it is not smooth enough. Stop that copilot mess and start improving your windows.

10:32 using an enterprise product to perform a personal tax calculation. This is why something like Dots in ChatGPT is much more clearly priced than Copilot which is buried under multiple layers of subscriptions.

Everything must be going really well over at nvidia. Lmao raising prices like they are trying to save the farm.
@Steve_la

If you can afford a Surface Ultra, I think you should have switched to all USB-C by now. The USB-A port really ruin the device for me at this price point
@ahmed-q4s4h
October 9, 2026 at 2:52 am
copylot ——- copylot 365 —— bye bye…..Huston we got a problem….. many problem Huston….ok Autopylot….. Copilot told me : Xbox and Microsoft laid off 4,600 people in 2026. It’s in progress…… oh dear….
@MDXZFR
October 9, 2026 at 4:07 am
I believe this product for the 1st time. Surface devices I mean. And its performance I too mean. Because Nvidia never failed to deliver all the promises of their products except the price. For the Microsoft, previous processors, let Intel or Snapdragon, never delivered up to the promise. It’s either performance or battery. But this time, it’s different. And I believe this one will deliver everything.
