Microsoft launches AI-powered Edge Copilot Mode, enabling task automation across tabs, with rollout starting on Windows 11.

Microsoft has expanded its Edge browser with Copilot Mode, a new AI-powered feature that lets the assistant read open tabs, summarize content, compare options, and perform tasks like booking travel or filling forms—requiring user consent. The update, now rolling out to Windows 11 users and planned for other platforms, introduces Actions, Journeys, and voice interactions, positioning Edge as a direct competitor to OpenAI’s ChatGPT Atlas. Both AI browsers aim to redefine web navigation through real-time task automation, though Microsoft’s version is tightly integrated with Windows and Office. The move marks a pivotal moment in the race to control the future of intelligent browsing.
