emirates7 - Microsoft has started testing an experimental Copilot Mode within its Edge browser, introducing advanced AI capabilities aimed at boosting user productivity and improving the browsing experience.

This AI-driven mode enables Copilot to access all open browser tabs, allowing it to perform tasks like comparing hotels, summarizing shopping options across multiple pages, and booking restaurants, thereby simplifying complex online decisions.

It also supports voice commands for navigating websites or opening tabs focused on product comparisons.

With user consent, Microsoft plans to let Copilot access browsing history and saved credentials to facilitate making reservations on the user’s behalf.

This initiative is part of a wider integration of Copilot into the browser, featuring Copilot Vision, which helps organize both current and past browsing activities.

Microsoft emphasized that Copilot Mode will be optional, with users able to enable or disable it through browser settings. Those who choose not to activate the mode can continue using Edge as usual.

The feature is still experimental and expected to develop over time. It will be available for free for a limited period, with some feature limitations, indicating it may eventually be part of a paid subscription.
