Microsoft is offering AI through Copilot Mode on Edge
Microsoft’s AI agents are now making their way to the Edge browser in the form of Copilot mode which is being pilot tested in an experimental phase starting this week. You’ve heard a lot about AI agents in the past few months so it was obvious that Microsoft will have its own version for the web browser Edge and its users.
The new mode is being built into the Edge browser that can handle tasks like organise content across all the tabs, and take help of AI to let you book restaurants or even plan a trip.
Microsoft Edge AI Agent On Browser: How It Works
We’ve seen AI agents take over web browsers, something that both Chrome with Gemini and Comet with Perplexity AI offer for users. Now, Copilot Mode is integrating some form of GPT with Edge browser to give people more reasons to try out the new-gen Edge browser that comes by default on Windows PCs.
The company is also working on its own Vision with Copilot where it will seek your permission to use the camera on the PC or other devices as well as access your web history to screen through tasks in a personalised way. More importantly, the AI agent with Copilot will get voice navigation support so that you don’t need to type the prompt and just tell the command with your voice.
Using the new AI version in Edge is easy. Just open the web browser on your PC and you will be greeted on the screen, asking, “How can I help you today?
Google has shown us the power of AI which is now enabled in Search for millions of users with the AI Mode. Microsoft is doing its Copilot Mode version in the same manner. Speaking of AI, OpenAI has a ChatGPT 5 version launching soon in the market and the early signs have brought about some concerns from none other than Sam Altman, the chief of the ChatGPT maker. He has been quoted saying some worrying things about the upcoming AI chatbot version, which he says, “feels very fast," than the previous iterations.
Altman was speaking in a podcast recently, where he decided to tease the world with these concerning details and not sharing the actual technical bits about the ChatGPT 5 model and what features people can expect to roll out.
