About this tag
Copilot browsing refers to Microsoft Edge's AI-powered feature that allows Copilot to access and reason across open tabs, browsing history, and page content. Recent updates in May 2026 introduced Browse with Copilot, tab context awareness, study tools, AI-generated audio summaries, and long-term memory.

For Windows users and IT administrators, copilot browsing represents a shift toward convenience-driven surveillance, prompting debates over data control and policy management in enterprise environments.
