Summary
Microsoft is banking heavily on Copilot to take Windows 11 to the next level.
It integrated Copilot into Bing and then added it to Windows 11 with the 23H2 update.
But why doesn’t it do more just yet, and will that change soon?

Still, results for Windows queries aren’t super helpful and often generic.
The answers to simple queries like “how to delete a file” are satisfactory.
But a simple web search will get you the same result and faster.
Copilot can do routine taskslike changing a few tweaks on your Windows 11 PC.
For example, you could ask it to change the theme.
It also supports voice commands, eliminating the need to throw in queries.
But Copilot’s current level of intelligence isn’t praiseworthy.
Shouldn’t an Operating System-level AI Know More?
Troubleshooters perform some preliminary checks to fix the issue with a machine.

But that’s not an effective method to fix every problem that arises on Windows.
It doesn’t pinpoint the exact process that can help you.
Copilot doesn’t act independently to implement the steps to fix the problem.
It’s just a web app implementation and is not deeply integrated with system apps.
What Does The Future Hold?
To harness the true power of AI on Windows 11, Copilot needs to be more innovative.
An NPU on board can process tasks faster without overburdening the CPU.
Using this component, upcoming features like Windows Studio Effects can work natively.
Will they be able to utilize the full power of a system-level AI?
In any case, it’s an issue Microsoft will have to solve.
