Microsoft adds Copilot Mode to deliver AI for Edge web browser

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) now lets users of its Edge web browser add Copilot Mode, which enables artificial intelligence features while browsing.

It is available today in experimental mode on Edge for Windows and Mac, the company said.

“It doesn’t just wait idly for you to click but anticipates what you might want to do next,” Microsoft said in a blog post. “It doesn’t just give you endless tabs to sift through but works with you as a collaborator that makes sense of it all. It keeps you browsing, cuts through clutter and removes friction to unlock your flow – all built to the highest Microsoft standards of security, privacy and performance trusted by billions of people and businesses worldwide – with you as the user always in control.”

The search giant Google (GOOG)(GOOGL) began rolling out its AI Mode for search in March. Perplexity also offers an AI-powered search engine. OpenAI introduced ChatGPT search late last year.
