Microsoft Corp., eager to demonstrate a payoff from its huge investments in artificial intelligence, is adding voice and vision features to its consumer-focused AI assistant.
The updated Copilot app will read users a summary of news, a feature called Copilot Daily, and, eventually, personalized reminders. Copilot Vision, which is in preview, can answer questions about text and images users are browsing online and offer guidance — such as suggesting how to furnish an apartment someone is considering purchasing.
