In the first Creators Update, Microsoft bundled Cortana as a narrator for the Windows 10 out-of-box-experience (OOBE). While potentially mildly annoying for a single user, this video details how silly it can get for IT departments deploying multiple PCs at once.
When unboxing or installing a Windows 10 PC with the latest updates for the first time, the set-up wizard now comes with some sluggish narration from Cortana, Microsoft's digital assistant. It's great for those with certain disabilities, and it also promotes Cortana to Windows users who might be unfamiliar with her, but on the other hand, it's a little annoying for those who don't want, or need, her help during set-up. Particularly so if you're working at an IT department.

This video from gamerqq shows what it's like setting up 40+ Windows PCs for an IT department, with a cacophonic Cortana choir in chorus.
