That means any developer will be able to easily connect their apps to AI, an essential move to make these products more useful.

Windows Copilot, just like Bing Chat, will also support the same third-party plugins that OpenAI's ChaptGPT uses. (I'm dreaming of the day when I can shout at my computer to look up information as I'm writing feverishly on deadline, or ask it to transcribe and summarize a meeting.) And hopefully by the time Microsoft adds voice support, it'll be closer to the Star Trek computer than the frustrating assistants of yore.
Better to let general users warm up with a few text strings before overwhelming people with voice commands. For many users, Windows Copilot will be the first time they've interacted with any sort of generative AI product. The simple, text-based approach to AI also makes sense for Microsoft. Siri remains confounding and inaccurate, while Google's Assistant is mainly useful for preemptively delivering information, rather than dealing with voice commands.) (And to be fair, pretty much every virtual assistant ended up being a disappointment. It has the potential to be the powerful voice assistant that Cortana, the Siri competitor Microsoft pushed for years, never amounted to. Windows Copilot is currently a text-only tool, but Panay envisions it evolving into something you can interact with on your own terms. I think it just makes Windows that much better." But now I think every developer can move forward as an AI developer and every user can be a power user on Windows. And I think both are so vital to the platform. "Our job is to responsibly, of course, push it forward to users that need both the past and need to get to the future We have so many kinds of users that use Windows in its simplest form, like browsing, Mail, and Office And then we've got the hardcore devs who get right down to the depth of the product. "There's so much depth in this product from the '90s on," said Panay. Windows Copilot actually weaves AI into the core Windows 11 experience. (And of course, that doesn't include the PCs running older Windows versions.) Microsoft previously tried to bring Bing's AI capabilities into the Windows taskbar in February, but that ultimately just amounted to a shortcut that launched Bing's AI chatbot in the Edge browser.

According to Microsoft, there are over 1.4 billion monthly active devices running Windows 10 or 11. It's a product with a devoted user base, many of whom have decades of experience with the OS. Microsoft has always been a company that's dabbled in search, but it's not a search company. MSN Search turned into Live Search, which ultimately evolved into Bing in 2009. The company launched its first attempt, MSN Search, in 1998 soon after Google arrived, and amid Yahoo's dominance as the go-to web portal. Microsoft's battle against Google has always seemed like a hopeless endeavor.

Windows Copilot can also function as a genuine virtual assistant by summarizing documents, or launching a photo app to accomplish a few edits before sending it off to a group of your coworkers.
You can ask it to accomplish tasks within the OS - like turning on the night light mode, or changing your desktop background - without fishing around for specific settings. But true to its name, it's also deeply integrated with Windows. The new Windows Copilot tool lives in the Windows sidebar and, as with Microsoft's Bing AI chatbot, you can use it as a super-powered search engine by typing in general questions. Today at its Build developer conference, Microsoft is making the inevitable next step: It's making AI an integral part of Windows 11. And even before those consumer reveals, Microsoft delivered an AI tool for developers in 2021 with GitHub Copilot. After debuting its AI-infused Bing search engine earlier this year, the company unveiled the Microsoft 365 Copilot for Office apps. Unlike Meta, Microsoft doesn't need to change its name to prove it's committed to an entirely new tech platform: It's doing so through action.
