Microsoft launches a new feature in its Edge browser

In a move that strengthens its position in the field of artificial intelligence, Microsoft announced earlier this week the launch of “Copilot Mode,” an intelligent feature integrated into its Edge browser, designed to simplify browsing and provide users with more advanced assistance tools.

According to a report published by Reuters, the new feature allows users to browse the internet in an organized manner by categorizing topics and analyzing content across different tabs, without having to switch between them manually. It leverages the integration of the Copilot assistant directly into the browser interface, offering interactive support that combines search, chat, and content preview.

This development comes amid intense competition among tech giants to create AI-powered browsing tools. Perplexity AI, backed by Nvidia, has launched an innovative browser called Comet, while OpenAI is preparing to release its own smart browser soon. Meanwhile, Google introduced “AI Mode” to its search engine earlier this year and recently reported improved user engagement with the feature.

Microsoft also stated that Copilot Mode will feature a new unified interface with a single box that combines text search, navigation, and chat, as well as support for voice commands. Soon, the assistant is expected to gain access to broader data, such as browsing history and saved information, enabling it to perform complex tasks like making reservations or automatically organizing personal tasks.
