Microsoft’s Copilot Gets a Voice Makeover: New Features Aim To Up The AI Game

Date:

NAIROBI, Kenya- Microsoft is giving its Copilot AI assistant a personality upgrade, adding a friendlier, more engaging voice that’s designed to make interactions feel more natural. 

In its latest update, Copilot now sounds more conversational and can even analyze web pages while you browse. 

The overhaul is part of Microsoft’s push to make Copilot a go-to AI companion for consumers, taking on competitors like ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini.

In a bid to make Copilot feel less like a robot and more like a helpful friend, Microsoft has enlisted creative pros—think psychologists, novelists, and comedians—to tweak the AI’s tone and style. 

Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, said in a recent interview that these changes are meant to make Copilot more relatable and useful, especially in everyday scenarios.

Copilot’s new voice features are just the beginning. The AI now offers verbal feedback with simple responses like “cool” or “huh,” making interactions feel more fluid.

Plus, it’s now equipped to scan and analyze web pages while you surf, making it easier to find information or make decisions on the go.

Microsoft isn’t stopping with casual conversations. For $20 a month, Copilot Pro subscribers can test out advanced features like “Think Deeper,” which helps users reason through complex decisions—think choosing between cities to relocate. 

Another new tool, “Copilot Vision,” is like digital pointing. It lets users talk to the AI about what they’re seeing in their browser. Microsoft promises that none of the content viewed will be used to train the AI, and users will need to opt in to use the feature.

These updates mark one of the first major rollouts under Suleyman’s leadership since Microsoft created a division in March focused on consumer products and tech research. 

And while Microsoft has had a tough time breaking into the consumer market, Suleyman is betting big on Copilot to make a splash in the increasingly crowded field of AI assistants .

Suleyman says the AI will eventually be able to learn from your Word docs, Windows desktop, and even your Xbox—if you’re okay with it. 

It’s all part of Microsoft’s long-term vision of having AI be an everyday assistant that seamlessly integrates into all aspects of life. 

And yes, even Bill Gates is excited about the possibilities. Suleyman revealed that the Microsoft co-founder is particularly eager for Copilot to start reading and organizing his emails.

These updates represent just a “glimmer” of what’s to come, according to Suleyman. With AI becoming more integrated into our daily digital lives, Microsoft is working to position Copilot as more than just a chatbot—it’s aiming to be your go-to digital sidekick.
