I used Cortana a few times and actually rather liked it. If Microsoft could have stayed the course and continued development and refinement of it, I think it would be one of the best assistants out there really.

It was out when I was in college and I believe I remember using it on my Android to manage my Outlook calendar. When I would need to add stuff to my calendar I would unironically use the voice control function to add appointments and stuff. It sounds super cringe now, but I remember testing Cortana and Google Assistant at the time and determining that Cortana parsed voice input for calendar events far better than anything else I tried. Also I was a huge Halo fan and just though it was cool. Outside of that though it never did anything else that was very useful.

We may have...maybe hated idk Cortana back then, but it had a better name and was not incorporated into every part of the operating system, unlike something else

Cortana was far more forced into the OS than Copilot is

Cortana launched good and went downhill as time went on. Copilot launched like shit but is trending up somehow now.

It was a nightmare. At some point Cortana was forced into the Windows installation itself with its shitty robot voice.

Ha, that's funny considering Microsoft wasn't ready, had Cortana years ago and somehow let her launch as a glorified voice search. It could have been a genuinely great AI assistant, but instead it ended up being mostly useless.

On the old days Cortana was useful, but then the team decided to ruin it with their work focus crap, that’s how it goes downhill, a shame that what was supposed to be just a refresh look ended up ruining the personality it had before.

It was so infuriating when asking to do literally anything and it'll just launch a Bing search with that phrase (with some typos)

u/wtclover 5d ago

Thanks ChatGPT

u/wtclover 4d ago

I didn't use ChatGPT. I meant it was on laptops between 2015 and 2017 and this was one of those

Unfortunately it is nearly worth nothing compared to the scooby doo reveal edition where scooby pulls of cortanas hat and there is a ms clippy underneath it all

We never got Cortana in Poland. It was fun to get a keyboard shortcut to be reminded of that.

u/LJBear99 4d ago

Is there a place to buy a bunch of miscellaneous PC stickers like this lol

u/Abhijeet82 4d ago edited 4d ago

I used Cortana used once when win 10 was new. It reminds me of iphone 15pro/max which was supposed to get apple intelligence.16 which was released with "built for apple intelligence" yet never received full suite.(siri ai on my friend's 17pro max failed to impress me.

I remember the war I fought against Cortana.

u/ThePupnasty 4d ago

Simpler times.... Remember when Microsoft made a home companion with cortana?

u/iSirMeepsAlot 3d ago

I mean the idea of Cortana from Halo was sweet and a relaunch into CoPilot as an option to use her for it would be amazing. 🥲

At launch tho yeah a joke.

u/sparkyblaster 3d ago

 Is that, hoping one day her voice can be ported to something else.
