Short answer? No. Talos does not interfere very often at all in mortal affairs as he is busy sustaining Creation in place of the Heart of Lorkhan, holding back the turning of the Kalpa, and generally mucking about on Masser. It's not an easy task by any stretch of the imagination, taking the place of one of two existential focal points, even if one has CHIM and Lorkhanic divinity.

That said, his words in Morrowind can be interpreted many ways. He simply states that the then-current Empire (the late Septim Dynasty) was old, and perhaps in need of change. He quite specifically points out that he does not know what that change should be. It could very well simply mean a changing of Dynasties, which happens with the rise of the Medes to the Imperial Throne, or some form of reform. He does in no way imply that he no longer supports the Empire, and indeed why would he? He built it. It's his lasting footprint on Nirn, one that's stood the test of hundreds of years. And indeed, if there is anything that can be said of Talos, it is that his Ego is legendary.
