Microsoft is launching a redesigned version of Copilot today, intent on becoming an AI assistant or companion. To celebrate this, Microsoft’s new AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has penned a 700-plus-word memo on what he describes as a “technological paradigm shift” toward AI models that can understand what humans see and hear.

Microsoft is doubling down on AI with new Copilot features and other AI tools. Here's who gets them first and when you can expect to see them.

Microsoft has new features for the Copilot AI assistant, Windows 11 OS, Copilot+ PCs, including Copilot Voice, Vision, Daily, Labs, Discover, Think Deeper and Click to Do.

Windows 11's 2024 update starts rolling out today, and there are also some new Copilot+ AI PC features coming.

Microsoft is rolling out Windows 11 24H2, and is introducing its next round of features for Copilot+ PCs, including bringing back Recall.

Microsoft has had its Apple M1 moment with Copilot+ PCs, and now the team is back with a slew of new features in its fall Windows 11 update — named 24H2.

Microsoft says AI in search will come to the File Explorer first and will make its way to Windows Settings and the universal Windows Search pane in the coming months. These improvements appear to be exclusive to Copilot+ PCs, as they require an NPU to process the visual recognition data for describing documents and files in search criteria.

Microsoft is planning to allow Windows 11 users to customize the Copilot key that has started shipping on new laptops and keyboards. The Copilot key is configured as default to launch Microsoft’s Copilot app on Windows 11, but the company is now testing the ability to use it to launch other apps instead.

New core code, convenience features, and eye candy, along with exclusive Copilot+ PC bonuses, grace the 24H2 version of Windows 11.
