I know, the app names are quirky and fun (hence the name change to Winpilot), but with the latter app, I hopped on the AI train and wanted to create the first tool of its kind—besides Copilot (even though it can barely handle any meaningful Windows management functions)—which can intelligently assist us in Windows and even take over certain functions.

Clippy seemed to be just the right fit for this, as he somehow annoyed most people back in his day, and nowadays, he isn't associated with much positivity. That's the whole point of the story—putting Clippy into a debloating/tweaking app, which somewhat gets back at Microsoft and maybe even contributes some valuable insights to the W11 OS to somewhat restore its honor. +**But what exactly does the Winpilot app do, and why is Clippy on board?** It all started with the spin-off of the predecessor project Bloatynosy to BloatynosyAI.

The rights to Clippit still belong to Microsoft (copyright notice is set in the app), even though when we talk about Clippy here, specifically in Winpilot, we mean NeoClippy.
