Most of these tasks can be done instantly with keyboard shortcuts

Awesome, now we have an AI assisted copilot to take screenshots, after typying 10 letters, instead of just pressing the Print Screen key!
Great job Microsoft!

I hope that this isn't all of it because you can do those things today with the search bar.

The fact that you could ask your computer to do things for you without having to do anything else would be an awesome game changer.

Imagine you could ask Copilot to become your mailmanager and doing so it would reply to mails with your consent and create an overview of all important mails that need follow up at the end of each week. Like a "Secretary" of some kind 😉

Copilot should be rebeanded to Clippy.

Also 4/5 lf those seem really pointless. There are quicker options to do that on your own.

[harrmick]

How do you remove this feature and any AI bs from a PC?

[randotuber]

Does it have a feature to turn it off?

[stevetech]

Calling it Copilot is giving it way too much credibility. They should have gone with Apprentice or similar IMO. 😂

[techscience]

So everything that you could to with "windows" key now you can do with AI, like open bluetooth settings, but it will take longer to "think"

I already hate the way they have changed Bing with the AI crap. I'm actually thinking of uninstalling Bing.

[helalchowdhury]

This should have been done 10 years ago.

Nice. So Cortana 2.0. This generative 'AI' grift is reaching its apex. I clearly remember commenting that Windows 12 would have a built-in generative 'AI' that mines every user action on a Nick White video. Well, I was about two years too late. Cortana 2.0 could be gone by the release of Windows 12. lol

I started a chat with Copliot, but the response is cut-off mid-sentence and I see a "1 of 30" followed by a green dot in the lower right. How do I access the rest of the response?

[mayur_me]

Let's hope that it'll not suffer the same fate as Cortana.

[srenlarsen]

There are good and bad.
The bad is slow respons in a way that a key stroke on keyboard is way faster for a person that never even look at the keyboard, but just do.
And the problem whit unly open system programs but no insert / delete / update funktions.
Windows update is not working her also.

But information search and image creating is ok.
Just so many problems else where.
Need to control width off Copilot program and text size and so on.
And wry do you need to go on to bing chat in a browser to delete old Q answers, that is a big problem in a way that just says okay you still need the browser version for clean up.

[techscience]

Why does it need to think long for basic actions like dark mode.. it should be in 0.01 second

[Cimlite]

Actions that literally take one button press, like screenshots or turning on DND seems like the least useful use for a tool like this.

[screenname]

now do a video on all the ways i can uninstall co pilot

[musingsfromthemindof]

My Copilot is all whited out. Cannot read text or anything

[hithere]

basically its useless. This is just a tool to use Windows over complicated interface.
What a shame to admit that we made simple thing that complicated that we need a special tool to use it :D

[rickrandazzo]

I was searching how ti UNINSTALL the pos!
