The Era of AI

Microsoft envisions a new era of AI that fundamentally changes our interactions with technology. This paradigm shift is driven by the convergence of chat interfaces and large language models. With Copilot, you can simply ask for what you need in natural language, and this AI companion is smart enough to respond, create content, or take action.
