Microsoft has quietly added a practical new trick to Copilot in PowerPoint — it can now generate a ready-to-edit slide directly from a Word document (or create a full presentation from a Word file), and that feature arrives at the exact moment organizations must face the hard deadline for...
Microsoft appears to be preparing a generational Windows refresh that places artificial intelligence at the center of the user experience, with multiple leak streams and community archives pointing to an AI-first platform (codenames such as Germanium and Hudson Valley) and a modular base...
Microsoft’s next-generation operating system, widely referred to in leaks and concept renderings as Windows 12, is shaping up to be less an incremental update and more a strategic pivot: an AI-first, modular OS that promises deeper cloud integration, a refreshed user interface, and a renewed...
Microsoft’s Copilot on Windows 11 is shedding its “chat-first” skin and opening a new, dashboard-style Home tab that behaves less like a conversational window and more like an AI-centric Start menu — surfacing recent files, apps, conversations, and guided help in one place.
