Tech giant Microsoft has revealed that it will be releasing Windows Copilot, an artificial intelligence-based ‘personal assistant’ for Windows 11 users.
With this announcement, Windows 11 became the first PC operating system to provide customers with centralised AI support.
The company made this announcement during the build developer conference they were hosting.
The activation of Windows Copilot is a process that is both user-friendly and intuitive. The button is positioned in the most accessible part of the taskbar, which is at the front and centre.
Once engaged, the Windows Copilot side bar acts as a dedicated personal assistant for you by being consistent throughout all of your applications, programmes, and windows.
This is the case once the bar has been activated. Every user is given more agency by this potent tool, which gives you the ability to take prompt action, customise your settings, and interact with the applications of your choice in a smooth manner.

Bing and ChatGPT
“with Bing and ChatGPT plugins in Windows Copilot,” as stated by Panos Panay, Chief Product Officer for Windows and Devices, “people will not only have access to augmented AI capabilities and experiences, but you as developers will also have new ways to reach and innovate for our shared customers.” We invite you to participate in the Windows Copilot adventure and ask that you continue to invest in the Bing and ChatGPT plugins so that your previous investments can be carried over into Windows Copilot.
Beginning in June, Windows Copilot will begin to be made accessible to preview users of Windows 11.
