Microsoft Enhances Copilot with User-Friendly Features
In a notable advancement for its generative AI application, Microsoft has commenced the rollout of an updated version of Copilot for users engaged in testing new builds of Windows 11. This latest iteration introduces a more intuitive interface that enhances user experience significantly.
The revamped Copilot features a dual-panel layout: a history panel on the right that meticulously tracks previous queries, while the left side displays the corresponding responses. This design not only streamlines interactions but also allows users to revisit past conversations seamlessly.
Taking cues from established user interfaces found in popular AI platforms such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, and Google’s Gemini, Microsoft aims to provide a familiar yet improved environment for users. In contrast to the current version available in the Microsoft Store, which lacks a history panel and resets conversations with each new query, this update promises a more cohesive and engaging experience.
Moreover, Copilot has transitioned to a native Windows application, leveraging XAML (Extensible Application Markup Language). This Microsoft-developed language facilitates a clear separation of the user interface from the underlying application code, allowing for greater flexibility and responsiveness in design.
