Microsoft is enhancing its Copilot AI assistant with new features designed to make it a more versatile and personalized companion. As part of its 50th-anniversary celebration, Microsoft is rolling out updates that aim to transform Copilot "from an AI companion to your AI companion." Among the most notable additions is the memory feature, enabling Copilot to recall details from previous conversations, such as favorite foods, movies, or important dates. This allows the AI to offer more tailored solutions, proactive suggestions, and timely reminders, fostering a more natural and helpful interaction. Concerns about privacy are being addressed with a user dashboard that allows users to control the type of information Copilot remembers or to opt out entirely.

One of the most impressive features being expanded is Copilot Vision, which allows the AI to interact with the real world through both mobile and Windows platforms. On mobile devices, users can point their phone's camera at objects to ask Copilot questions, such as identifying the model of a camera or determining the cost of a sculpture. Copilot can even provide real-time advice, such as how to adjust the aperture of a camera for better portraits. On Windows, Copilot Vision can analyze on-screen content and interact with it, such as helping users navigate applications or adjust settings. This feature is initially rolling out to Windows Insiders, with broader availability planned for the coming weeks.

Furthermore, Microsoft is exploring ways to personalize the appearance of Copilot, potentially allowing users to create a unique look for their AI companion. Copilot is also gaining new capabilities, such as Deep Research, an AI search engine, and the ability to create AI-generated audio podcasts from uploaded content. Microsoft adds ChatGPT-style features to expand Copilot's capabilities including an “Actions” feature, letting Copilot carry out tasks on websites independently. Copilot will fetch responses from Bing. Previews for most of these features will begin rolling out with stable public versions launching for all users in the coming weeks and months.
