alt Hacker NewsWindows has been pushing the same thing hard without much success.
Why do I care if AI is integrated into my OS when I can choose my preferred AI and it can use the OS directly?

I hate that I am defending apple here but Microslop has been pushing a garbage tacked on integration of AI into Windows. By all accounts of the last 20 years of Apple, they are much much better at integrating different services into one fluid system.

This.
The other day I wrote up some notes for a presentation. Opened Google Slides, clicked the gemini button, pasted the notes in and asked it to make the slides. Nope; gemini can only modify a single slide at a time in Google Slides.
Pasted the same notes into claude, it wrote a pptx file, I imported that into Slides, job done.
Being integrated into the product doesn't always mean a better result.
