The Artificial Intelligence Agent for Windows PCs that Microsoft has unveiled will automate all of your tasks.
Microsoft has provided an announcement on a variety of new capabilities that are driven by artificial intelligence and are intended to enhance the user experience across all Copilot+ PCs and Windows 11. Increased contextual help, task automation, and the introduction of intelligent features to a wider range of devices are the primary goals of this version.
AI Agent for computers using Copilot+
A new artificial intelligence assistant for on-device use, known as Agent, is one of the most noticeable enhancements. The purpose of this tool is to provide users with the ability to make alterations to the system level by using natural language commands. Users, for instance, have the ability to make requests for assistance with activities such as expanding the size of the mouse pointer or managing the computer with voice commands. All of these acts may be carried out directly on behalf of the user by the agent, provided that they are granted authorization to do so.
According to Microsoft, this functionality would initially only handle inquiries in the English language; however, the company has hinted that more languages will be introduced in subsequent releases. The deployment will start with personal computers (PCs) that are powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon CPUs, and then support will be added for systems that are powered by Intel and AMD.
Enhanced Capabilities for Clicking on and Doing
In addition, Microsoft is working to enhance the Click to Do capability that is included in Copilot. Because of this characteristic, the artificial intelligence is able to carry out tasks depending on what is now shown on the screen. With the most recent version, users will have the ability to instruct the artificial intelligence to create written material in Word, turn chosen text into bulleted lists, or transfer data into Excel.
Additionally, it is able to initiate accessibility tools such as Reading Coach and Immersive Reader, as well as manage scheduling and messaging activities in Microsoft Teams. All of this can be accomplished without the need for users to navigate between different applications.
New Features Available on All Devices Running Windows 11
Despite the fact that desktop computers with Copilot+ are getting the most attention, Microsoft has not neglected other users of Windows 11. The operating system will get updates that will include new tools driven by artificial intelligence that will be incorporated into File Explorer as well as expanded customization choices for the Start menu. Additionally, the Copilot app itself will be able to monitor and understand the user’s screen via a new feature called Copilot Vision. This will make it possible to provide help that is more tailored to the individual user.
Microsoft has not released a schedule that specifies when all of these capabilities will be made available to users. On the other hand, the business has stated that the upgrades will first be made available on Copilot+ PCs powered by Snapdragon devices, and then they will be made available on a wider range of platforms.
