    Sorry Jesus. Windows is my CoPilot now.

    I hope that this isn’t all of it because you can do those things today with the search bar.

    The fact that you could ask your computer to do things for you without having to do anything else would be an awesome game changer.

    Imagine you could ask Copilot to become your mailmanager and doing so it would reply to mails with your consent and create an overview of all important mails that need follow up at the end of each week. Like a “Secretary” of some kind 😉

    How do you remove this feature and any AI bs from a PC?

      Your machine is artificially intelligent.
      To try this will be like trying to strip a large chunk of your pc away.
      Good luck

    Apart from „summerize” feature seems it’s doing pretty much the same as Spotlight search and Siri have been doing on Mac for years. I guess it will get much more complex one day but that’s my intitial impression for the moment.

    Let’s hope that it’ll not suffer the same fate as Cortana.

    Calling it Copilot is giving it way too much credibility. They should have gone with Apprentice or similar IMO. 😂

    Most of these tasks can be done instantly with keyboard shortcuts

      @sai varun annadataYes AI is keyboard shortcuts. WTF are you smoking

      Pressing Win + Shift + S is a lot faster than asking Copilot for a Snipping Tool access

    You reference Edge and Bing as if they are widely used.

    Can copilot make file explorer not buggy like it is now?!

    Awesome, now we have an AI assisted copilot to take screenshots, after typying 10 letters, instead of just pressing the Print Screen key!
    Great job Microsoft!

    This should have been done 10 years ago.

    Sooooo ….. basically its useless. This is just a tool to use Windows over complicated interface.
    What a shame to admit that we made simple thing that complicated that we need a special tool to use it 😀

    Can it turn off Edge tab grouping ?

    Cortana left the chat

    Not impressive at all. It’s just a glorified search for buttons.

    This could be useful.

    What happened to Cortana

    I already hate the way they have changed Bing with the AI crap. I’m actually thinking of uninstalling Bing.

    August 17, 2023 at 2:14 pm

    Does it have a feature to turn it off?

    Nice. So Cortana 2.0. This generative ‘AI’ grift is reaching its apex. I clearly remember commenting that Windows 12 would have a built-in generative ‘AI’ that mines every user action on a Nick White video. Well, I was about two years too late. Cortana 2.0 could be gone by the release of Windows 12. lol

    This should have been cortana
