Windows 10 seems to be using standard ad algorithms to personalise ads. There's the usual business that whatever data points it can gather like what you say, or search, or click on, is influencing what ads you're seeing.

With Windows 11, it's built from the ground up to be integrated with ChatGPT. I was sitting in a presentation months ago where Microsoft were presenting Copilot.

Your other comment below, I strongly agree with. I'm happy to be running Linux but I believe that the downsides can be configured out of your system.
