Microsoft’s consumer Copilot is quietly evolving into a more ChatGPT‑like assistant — one that can remember user preferences and access third‑party files — with a new memory management toggle and the promise of Google Drive as a connected data source for the assistant...

Windows has always been a moving target: features appear, gain fans, stagnate, and sometimes quietly disappear — often replaced by something that reflects Microsoft’s current priorities around security, cloud services, and AI. The past decade alone shows a clear pattern: legacy, underused, or...

Mustafa Suleyman’s blunt declaration that machine consciousness is an illusion has refocused a technical debate into an operational warning for product teams, regulators, and everyday Windows users: the immediate danger is not that machines will quietly wake up, but that they will be engineered...

Microsoft will begin pushing the standalone Microsoft 365 Copilot app onto many Windows devices this fall, installing it quietly in the background on systems that already have Microsoft 365 desktop clients — with an explicit carve‑out for devices in the European Economic Area and several...

Microsoft Copilot is built into Windows 11 and Microsoft 365, but it’s straightforward to hide, disable, or block the feature when you want a distraction‑free workspace or need to enforce an enterprise policy. Background Microsoft introduced Copilot as a system‑level assistant that blends local...

Microsoft will begin automatically installing the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on many Windows devices this fall, but the rollout is neither universal nor unstoppable — administrators and privacy-conscious users have documented methods to block installation and disable the feature, and Microsoft...

Mustafa Suleyman’s blunt diagnosis — that machine consciousness is an “illusion” and that building systems to mimic personhood is dangerous — has reframed a debate that until recently lived mostly in philosophy seminars and research labs. His argument is practical, not metaphysical: modern...

Microsoft’s Copilot has evolved from a curious chatbot experiment into a sprawling, multi-surface productivity platform that now sits in Windows, Edge, mobile apps, Microsoft 365 and Azure tooling — and its capabilities span conversational drafting, multimodal image and audio generation, in‑app...

Microsoft's Surface Pro line is on the move again: after a year of careful iteration and the arrival of a new 12‑inch Surface Pro variant, the rumor mill and a handful of leaks point toward a more ambitious flagship refresh commonly referred to as the Surface Pro 12 (12th Gen) — a device that...

Satya Nadella has publicly shown how he uses five short, repeatable ChatGPT-style prompts inside Microsoft Copilot to “supercharge” his executive workflow — calling Copilot “a new layer of intelligence spanning all my apps” and framing the assistant less as a drafting tool and more as a...

Microsoft’s Windows lead has just sketched a future in which the operating system becomes ambient, multimodal and agentic — able to listen, see, and act — a shift powered by a new class of on‑device AI and tight hardware integration that will reshape how organisations manage and secure Windows...

Microsoft's Copilot has quietly received one of the most consequential behind-the-scenes upgrades since its rollout: the free tier now runs on OpenAI's GPT-4 Turbo, bringing a much larger context window, a fresher knowledge base, and a set of performance fixes that address earlier complaints...

OpenAI’s GPT‑5 is not a simple story of triumph or collapse; it is a complex product moment where measurable technical gains collided with human expectations, sparking both applause from analysts and a loud user backlash that left the company revising defaults and restoring legacy options...

Microsoft has quietly crossed a strategic threshold: after years of relying on partner models to power Copilot and other flagship services, the company has publicly unveiled its first fully in‑house AI models — MAI‑Voice‑1 and MAI‑1‑Preview — and immediately begun folding them into Copilot...

Microsoft has quietly shipped its first fully in‑house AI models — MAI‑Voice‑1 and MAI‑1‑preview — marking a deliberate shift in strategy that reduces dependence on OpenAI’s stack and accelerates Microsoft’s plan to own more of the compute, models, and product surface area that power Copilot...

Windows 11’s AI-first push has turned into a study in contradictions: promising productivity shortcuts and local intelligence on one hand, and on the other hand delivering a fragmented, confusing, and sometimes privacy-ambiguous user experience that many feel undermines the core job of an...

Windows 11 Pro is being promoted as a bargain and a productivity leap at the same time — with reports of deeply discounted licenses (as low as the low‑teens in some offers) circulating alongside Microsoft's steady rollout of AI enhancements to the OS, most notably a revamped Copilot with...

Microsoft has begun quietly testing a major upgrade to Copilot on Windows that brings semantic, natural‑language file and image search directly into the Copilot app — gated initially to Copilot+ hardware and rolling out to Windows Insiders via the Microsoft Store in a staged release...

Microsoft’s Copilot app for Windows has received a staged Insider update that adds conversational, semantic file search on Copilot+ PCs and a redesigned Copilot home that surfaces recent apps, files and conversations — all packaged in Copilot app builds starting with version 1.25082.132.0 and...

Microsoft has begun expanding a staged Insider preview that brings semantic file search to Copilot+ PCs and ships a redesigned Copilot home inside the Copilot app for Windows Insiders, packaging natural‑language file and image discovery alongside a new, context‑aware workspace that surfaces...
