Windows 11 is getting an AI Copilot

Copilot, a virtual assistant from Microsoft, will be available on Windows 11. Microsoft already incorporates this assistance into Edge, its Office programs, and GitHub. But the Windows Copilot will reside in the taskbar. You can ask Copilot to summarize, rewrite, and explain content in any of the apps you're using, as well as change the settings on your computer, by clicking into it. This brings up the Copilot sidebar. Next month, Microsoft said it will begin publicly testing the capability before expanding its user base.

Along with native RGB controls in Windows 11, Microsoft is also introducing support for 10 new languages and dialects in live captions, a function that instantly transcribes audio.
