Microsoft Edge has introduced an AI feature called Copilot Mode. Currently, this feature is available on an opt-in basis, meaning users need to enable it to use it. Here’s how you can enable or disable Copilot Mode in your Edge browser on Windows 11.
The Copilot Mode is designed to enhance your web browsing experience with the assistance of AI. It is available in Edge version 138 and higher. This mode will replace the existing experience you are familiar with in both the Windows 11 app and the web version of the chatbot.
Copilot Mode introduces the ability for the chatbot to view all your open tabs, enabling it to comprehend their content. This helps you compare options, make decisions, and act more efficiently.
Future enhancements will allow the chatbot to function as an AI assistant, capable of making reservations and executing specific tasks on websites through simple natural language requests.
Additionally, it will track your search history to automatically suggest relevant content, including websites and videos, tailored to your interests and preferences.
In this guide, let us learn how to enable or disable the Copilot Mode in Edge browser.
