Microsoft has quietly updated its AI assistant, Copilot, with the ability to browse the web and automate tasks. This includes booking tickets and reserving restaurants through partnerships with platforms like Booking.com and Expedia. “The best tool is the one that works without you noticing,” as the old tech proverb goes.
Copilot now also tracks online deals, alerts to price drops, and can generate synthetic podcasts from given content. On mobile, it analyzes real-time video or photos to answer contextual questions.
Windows users will see enhanced desktop integration, allowing Copilot to search, organize files, and adjust settings directly. This update is first available to Windows Insiders.
The assistant remembers user preferences for personalized suggestions, with privacy controls to manage or delete these memories. A modest step forward in the quiet evolution of AI assistants. 🖥️
