Microsoft has announced a major update to Windows 11 that includes the
Copilot AI assistant.
What is Windows 11's Copilot AI?
Copilot is an AI service supported by Microsoft, based on OpenAI's large-scale language model. It operates to produce
human-like text and content upon people's instructions. It can be used for drafting emails, answering questions, and performing automated tasks in Windows. It also can retrieve information from websites to enhance its knowledge base.
How to Use Copilot AI
You can activate this feature through the major update of Windows 11 23H2. After the update, you need to activate the feature as follows:
- Go to Personalization > Taskbar
- Activate Copilot from the right menu
- Check the added Copilot on the bottom panel
For reference, you can use this feature more conveniently with the
Win +
C shortcut. Pressing this shortcut brings up a panel on the
right side of the screen, where you can have a text conversation with the new virtual assistant. It is said to be more advanced than Cortana, which was introduced with the release of Windows 10 in 2015.
