Today we take the next step to unify these capabilities into a single experience we call Microsoft Copilot, your everyday AI companion. Copilot will uniquely incorporate the context and intelligence of the web, your work data and what you are doing in the moment on your PC to provide better assistance – with your privacy and security at the forefront. It will be a simple and seamless experience, available in Windows 11, Microsoft 365, and in our web browser with Edge and Bing. It will work as an app or reveal itself when you need it with a right click. We will continue to add capabilities and connections to Copilot across to our most-used applications over time in service of our vision to have one experience that works across your whole life.

Copilot will begin to roll out in its early form as part of our free update to Windows 11, starting Sept. 26 — and across Bing, Edge, and Microsoft 365 Copilot this fall. We’re also announcing some exciting new experiences and devices to help you be more productive, spark your creativity, and to meet the everyday needs of people and businesses.

    So it’s finally happening. I’m honestly a bit pessimistic on the whole AI integrated into the system thing, I hope there’s an easy option to turn it off or dismiss it entirely. I can see myself using this to ask it where the hell the setting I’m looking for is, but that’s about it.

    I also bet this will be way more useful than microsoft’s unhinged forums for tech support. It can’t get worse with “have you tried running nfc /scannow” as a response to every unrelated problem.

      The easy way to turn it off is not paying for it. It’s like $30/user/month.

      Omg, I saw an answer on there the other day from 2018 talking about “software conflicts”. They don’t even know what they’re talking about most of the time.

      I can see Microsoft being even more aggressive with beating features into you with windows. Best steer clear if possible
