Microsoft has announced a new feature in Teams that lets users add Copilot AI to join group chats to help you with multiple tasks.

If you missed it, Microsoft recently announced its new "Hey, Copilot" feature. If that gave you immediate flashbacks to its Windows 10-era "Hey, Cortana," or even the "Start Listening" phrase from Windows Vista, then you likely already know what this feature will do.

With Chrome still dominant and AI-native browsers gaining ground, Microsoft is banking on Copilot Mode and enterprise-grade governance to revive Edge’s fortunes.

Microsoft's AI-focused fall feature drop introduces a new avatar, an enhanced solution for group projects, health-related information, and more.

That sentiment underpins Microsoft’s positioning of Copilot as more than a software product. The company describes it as a philosophical commitment — “a promise that AI can be helpful, supportive, and deeply personal.” This approach aims to shift focus away from the automation of human work and toward the amplification of human potential.

Microsoft is rolling out some significant changes to its Copilot AI assistant today. There’s a new groups feature that connects multiple people into a Copilot chat, memory to let Copilot learn things about you, a new “real talk” mode that will bring back some of Copilot’s early personality, and more.

Mico, short for Microsoft Copilot, is designed to be the personification of the AI chatbot, listening and reacting to your chats by changing its expression and color. Mico looks a bit like an anthropomorphic diamond, though Microsoft says it’s also customizable.

Mico is just one component of the”human-centered AI” included in its Copilot Fall Release. Microsoft is also adding Copilot Groups, a chatbot that can interact with groups of up to 32 people at once;

Microsoft Edge's Copilot Mode is now widely available with two new experimental features: Copilot Actions and Journeys.

Microsoft introduced new features in its digital assistant Copilot on Thursday, including collaboration and deeper integration with other applications such as Outlook and Google, beefing up its AI services to stave off competition.
