Microsoft brings Copilot to Windows 10 | TechCrunch

Nov 16, 2023 - techcrunch.com
Microsoft's AI-powered chatbot, Copilot, is set to be introduced to Windows 10 in a preview version. The feature will be available to users participating in Microsoft’s Windows Insider program starting with Windows 10 version 22H2. Users will be able to interact with Copilot by typing or speaking after clicking the Copilot icon on the taskbar. However, the Windows 10 version of Copilot will not have the same capabilities as the Windows 11 version, such as customizing preferences and settings or opening apps.

The decision to bring Copilot to Windows 10 is mainly due to the large user base, with around a billion monthly active devices compared to 400 million on Windows 11. The rollout is for devices running Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro with at least 4GB of RAM and a 720p or higher display, excluding Enterprise, Education and company-managed Pro editions of Windows 10, and customers in Europe. Initially, only Windows 10 devices in North America and parts of Asia and South America are eligible for Copilot, with plans to add additional markets over time.

Key takeaways:

  • Copilot, Microsoft's AI-powered chatbot, is coming to Windows 10 in preview, starting with version 22H2.
  • Users will be able to interact with Copilot by typing or speaking after clicking the Copilot icon on the taskbar.
  • Windows 10 with Copilot is rolling out for devices running Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro with at least 4GB of RAM and a 720p or higher display, but not in Europe.
  • Microsoft plans to add additional markets over time and hints that more functionalities for Copilot on Windows 10 could arrive in the future.
