Microsoft Reveals the AI Key for Windows 11 PCs

​Microsoft introduced the new Copilot key for Windows 11 PCs, empowering people to participate in the AI transformation more easily and marking the first significant change to the Windows keyboard in nearly three decades as the company kicks off the year of the AI PC.

With great excitement, Microsoft unveiled a new Copilot key for Windows 11 PCs on January 4, marking the next big advancement. With artificial intelligence (AI) being fully integrated into Windows, from the system to the silicon to the hardware, the massive global tech company will bring about a dramatic shift in the coming year toward a more personal and intelligent system future. The year 2024 will be remembered as the year of the AI PC, according to Microsoft, because of how much this will streamline and enhance people's computer experiences.

​The platform change brought about by AI innovation is still expanding quickly and forcefully, radically altering the way we use technology in both our personal and professional lives. Microsoft declared its dedication to enabling individuals and institutions to adjust and prosper in this emerging AI era.

​Together, AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm have unveiled their most recent innovations that enable new AI experiences on Windows PCs, and the multinational tech giant is witnessing incredible momentum from these partners as well. These companies are implementing new system architectures that power new Windows AI experiences by combining the GPU, CPU, NPU, and cloud.

​People all throughout the world were able to engage with Windows when Microsoft added the Windows key to the PC keyboard about thirty years ago. The multinational tech giant views this as yet another pivotal step in Windows, as Copilot will serve as the gateway to PC AI around the world.

​According to Microsoft, the Copilot key will be available on many of the new Windows 11 PCs from its ecosystem partners starting later this month and continuing through spring, including on future Surface devices. This will be evident in the days leading up to and during CES.
