Microsoft's AI pivot risks sidelining Windows and Office, critics warn

Microsoft’s aggressive AI push—centered on Copilot and OpenAI ties—appears to divest focus from Windows and Office, sparking concerns that short‑term AI bets could undermine the profits and user adoption of its core products. The piece traces Satya Nadella’s pivot away from the traditional “software factory” vision toward AI, security, and transformation, while noting Windows 11 adoption challenges, Copilot rollouts, antitrust/regulatory pressures, and competition from LibreOffice/Euro‑Office. It also cites geopolitical moves (France toward Linux) and investor worries about AI spend vs. returns, leaving the fate of Windows and Office uncertain as Microsoft bets big on AI.

Microsoft will roll out Office app updates next week that let users disable a floating Copilot button in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, and move it back to the ribbon by right‑clicking the Dynamic Action Button, addressing Excel users’ complaints that it obstructs cells; the move follows Microsoft’s earlier removal of other Copilot buttons in Windows 11 apps.

Cortisol, stress, and weight gain: could a shorter work week help your waistline?

Cortisol, stress, and weight gain: could a shorter work week help your waistline?

Stress can raise cortisol and boost appetite for high-fat, high-sugar foods, which may contribute to weight gain mainly through behavior rather than cortisol itself; chronic high cortisol is linked to belly fat only in rare conditions like Cushing’s. Weight management still hinges on calories in versus calories out, plus sleep, diet quality and regular exercise. The piece also notes that longer working hours may raise obesity risk by reducing time for healthy habits, and it suggests a four-day work week could help some people make healthier choices, though policy changes are needed and there are no quick fixes.

Microsoft Tightens Copilot Privacy by Extending DLP to All Office Docs

Microsoft is extending its data loss prevention controls to all Office documents—whether local, SharePoint, or OneDrive—so Copilot cannot process restricted content, with the change rolling out via AugLoop between March and April 2026 and auto-enabling for existing DLP policies; it follows a prior bug that briefly allowed Copilot to summarize confidential emails, and does not change Copilot's capabilities, only how labels are read to enforce DLP.
