Overview
- AI chief Mustafa Suleyman described Copilot in Edge as “a little angel” that handles reviews, price comparisons, and research in real time.
- Copilot Mode will be able to manage tabs, navigate sites, click buttons, and even book reservations based on a user’s command.
- Microsoft will not launch a separate AI browser, instead folding the experience directly into Edge as a single, unified product.
- The integration is set to roll out as an opt-in experience with transparency commitments and the option for users to intervene at any moment.
- Suleyman claims the approach puts Edge ahead of rivals as Microsoft seeks to compete with Chrome’s 69% market share and AI browsers from Perplexity and OpenAI.
