The launch of the Windows 10 AI Copilot could enable Microsoft to target a far broader user base
Microsoft is reportedly planning to integrate its AI Copilot in Windows 10 as part of a sweeping new update, according to reports.
The decision to roll out its AI Copilot for Windows 10 users could prove vital in its push to boost adoption of the AI assistant.
The move will see Windows 10 users given access to a Copilot button on the taskbar, enabling them to access the tool to support a range of tasks, according to Windows Central.
Copilot capabilities on Windows 10 are expected to be “roughly the same” as on Windows 11, the publication said. This will also include plugin compatibility across both versions of the operating system.
Copilot officially rolled out on the operating system in November 2023 as part of the Windows 11 version 23H2 update.
Sources told Windows Central the update is part of an effort to capitalize on the significant market share that Windows 10 still holds.
The move could allow Microsoft to get more eyes on the AI Copilot by drawing on a far larger user base. At present, Windows 11 boasts around 400 million monthly active devices globally, whereas Windows 10 is still in use on around one billion devices.
