Microsoft Copilot

What's new?
Copilot is a consistent experience across all your devices available as a side pane in your favorite applications and as an icon
on your Windows taskbar. 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. Copilot will begin to roll out in the coming weeks and months.

Why use it?

• We are entering a new era of AI, one that is fundamentally changing how we relate to and benefit from technology. With
the convergence of chat interfaces and large-language models you can now ask for what you want in natural language
and the technology is smart enough to answer, create it, or take action. At Microsoft, we think about this as having a
copilot to help navigate any task.
• Copilot in Windows empowers you to create faster, complete tasks with ease and lessens your cognitive load – making
once complicated tasks, simple. We’ve made accessing the power of Copilot seamless as it’s always right there for you on
the taskbar or with the Win+C keyboard shortcut providing assistance alongside all your apps, on all screen sizes at work,
school or at home.

When can I find it?

Copilot will begin to roll out in the coming weeks and months.

Where to find it?

Copilot will begin to roll out in its early form as part of our free Windows 11 update starting September 26th—and across
Bing, Edge, and Microsoft 365 Copilot this Fall.
