Microsoft’s Copilot Will Browse the Web With You in New Update

Microsoft Corp. is embedding the Copilot AI assistant deeper into its browser, betting that users will find the service helpful when sorting through information and navigating the web.

The new Copilot Mode for Microsoft Edge was announced on Monday, with the company characterizing it as an experiment. When the feature is enabled, opening a new browser tab will bring together Microsoft’s AI assistant and web search in a single text box.
