Project Aion: Microsoft leaked the AI-powered Windows that will eliminate the desktop

Microsoft leaked a prototype that replaces the Start menu and desktop with AI: this is Project Aion, the Windows of the future. Strategic error or calculated move?

We analyze what the leaked 2024 video actually reveals: the Spaces concept, Win32 in the cloud via Windows 365, and why the most common criticism is targeting the wrong problem. The deeper question isn’t the prototype’s speed but who controls the software you use.
