Microsoft unveiled a suite of updates for its Copilot AI assistant in Windows 11 on October 16, 2025, continuing its strategy of deeply integrating AI into the operating system. The new features significantly expand the assistants capabilities: users can now control system settings, launch applications, and perform actions using voice commands. The update also includes enhanced automation scenarios, allowing Copilot to perform multi-step tasks from a single user request. For example, the assistant can automatically organize a workspace by opening the necessary applications and arranging their windows on the screen. According to Reuters, these improvements aim to make Copilot not just a feature for finding information, but a proactive assistant that anticipates user needs and simplifies their interaction with the computer.
