Windows 10: First look at ChatGPT-powered Microsoft Copilot for Windows 10, now in beta

WinLatest · Nov 16, 2023

The Bing Chat and ChatGPT-4 powered Windows Copilot is officially coming to Windows 10, and you can try it in the Release Preview Channel soon. The early version of Microsoft Copilot on Windows 10 and Windows 11 uses multiple large language models, including Microsoft’s in-house LLMs, GPT 3.5 and GPT-4.

This feature will be rolled out to users on Home and unmanaged Pro editions of Windows 10 version 22H2 over the coming weeks in the Release Preview Channel, but remember – you must meet the minimum system requirements for the AI.

Microsoft says Copilot for Windows 10 works on devices with at least 4GB of RAM and 720p, so if you have anything lower than the above specs, you won’t be able to launch Bing Chat AI on the desktop.

To become eligible for Copilot early preview, join the Release Preview Channel, download and install Windows 10 KB5032278, and reboot the system. After reboot, go to Windows Update settings again, and turn on the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” option, which will install “Windows Configuration update”.

In our tests, we do not see the Windows Configuration update when we check for updates, so you won’t be able to try Copilot today.

Closer look at Windows Copilot on Windows 10

Once Copilot is enabled on a Windows 10 system, you can access it easily from the taskbar’s system tray. Unlike Windows 11, Copilot on Windows 10 is located at the end of the taskbar.

Microsoft has placed a Copilot button next to the Action Center. Like Windows 11, when you click the button, a Bing Chat-powered side panel will appear on the right side.

However, the Windows 10 version of Copilot will have certain limitations compared to its Windows 11 counterpart. For example, Microsoft says you won’t be able to open apps or change settings, as Copilot is not deeply integrated into Windows 10.

I’m told more features will be added over time, but Copilot on Windows 10 would initially be limited to Bing Chat.

Also, Copilot isn’t available for everyone. It only works in North America, parts of Asia, and South America, with plans to expand to additional markets gradually.

Microsoft won’t force Copilot on Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education… for now.

Microsoft has also confirmed that it has no plans to push Copilot to the Pro, Enterprise and Education editions of Windows 10.

As mentioned, Microsoft requires slightly higher minimum system requirements for using Copilot on Windows 10: at least 4GB of RAM and a 720p display. This is probably because Windows 10 has lower system requirements than Windows 11.

Microsoft surprise event for Bing ChatGPT

UPDATE: Microsoft reinventing search with AI-powered Microsoft Bing and Edge

Microsoft is holding a major news event on Tuesday, February 7th. The software giant first mailed out invites to an in-person event at the company’s Redmond headquarters last week and is now officially announcing the event minutes after Google made its ChatGPT rival official. Microsoft’s event starts at 10AM PT / 1PM ET, and the company isn’t teasing much ahead of time. But it’s likely the company will focus on its rumored ChatGPT integration into Bing and its broader partnership with OpenAI. The invite says Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella will “share some progress on a few exciting projects,” so expect a number of important announcements. The invite comes just days after Microsoft extended its OpenAI partnership in a $10 billion deal that will see it become the exclusive cloud partner for OpenAI. Microsoft’s cloud services will power all OpenAI workloads across products, API services, and research. Microsoft’s event also comes just moments after Google announced its own ChatGPT rival, Bard. The “experimental conversational AI service” is only being tested by a limited group right now, but Google promises to open it up to wider public availability in the coming weeks.

Nevertheless, this is good step for microsoft, by far.
