Microsoft has announced a major shift in its keyboard technology by introducing a dedicated AI key, providing users with instant access to Copilot on new Windows 11 PCs. The move is touted as the most significant change in Microsoft keyboards in three decades, aiming to simplify user experiences. The AI key will debut on new products from February.
Copilot, powered by OpenAI's GPT-4, is already integrated into Microsoft 365 and Bing search, offering assistance in various applications. The move comes as the UK's competition watchdog examines Microsoft's ties with OpenAI. Rivals like Apple and Google have also incorporated AI into their products, reflecting a trend sparked by OpenAI's ChatGPT in 2022.
