Imagine beginning your day with Copilot reading the latest news or guiding you through a recipe, step by step. Thanks to its enhanced voice feature, you can now converse with Copilot as naturally as you would with a friend — simply ask a question and receive an instant, conversational response. Whether you’re organizing your day or checking the weather, Copilot is designed to support your every need. 

Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, spearheaded this transformation. “At Microsoft AI, we’re committed to building an AI companion that truly enhances people’s lives,” said Suleyman. “This marks a new era where technology is not just functional, but supportive and genuinely helpful.” 

The updated Copilot interface offers a friendlier, more welcoming design, with the new Copilot Discover page at the center of the experience. This page evolves as you interact, tailoring suggestions, tips, and information to your unique preferences, making each interaction more personal and engaging. 

Yusuf Mehdi, Executive Vice President and Consumer Chief Marketing Officer at Microsoft, emphasized the contributions of Microsoft’s Pi team and Inflection AI partners: “Their insights into user needs have been instrumental in shaping the new Copilot. We’ve created an experience that’s designed to adapt to the individual.” 

A key focus of this update is voice interaction, with four distinct voice options, giving users the freedom to select the one that feels most comfortable. “We’re investing heavily in voice technology to ensure that conversations with Copilot feel fluid and natural,” Mehdi added. 

In addition to voice, Copilot Vision brings a new level of functionality, allowing the AI assistant to “see” and interpret online content. Whether you’re shopping, reading, or conducting research, Copilot can assist with additional information or help you navigate your tasks more efficiently. 

Other highlights include Copilot Daily – a personalized audio briefing with news and weather updates, perfect for your morning routine. For more complex inquiries, the Think Deeper feature delivers detailed, step-by-step insights, helping you make more informed decisions with ease. 

The enhanced Copilot is now available on iOS and Android apps, as well as on the web at copilot.microsoft.com and via the Copilot Windows app. Voice features will launch first in English in select regions, with plans to expand to additional languages and locations soon. 

With this update, Copilot is not just an AI assistant—it’s an essential companion for navigating everyday life.
