Microsoft has bet very heavily on AI. To the point that the Redmond-based manufacturer is the majority partner of OpenAI, owner of ChatGPT. Thanks to this alliance they launched Copilot, an AI tool integrated into Windows, although you can easily use it on your iPhone or Android. Now, as reported by XDA Developers, Microsoft announced today that Windows 11 laptops released in 2024 will come with a new key on their keyboards: the Copilot key. A historic change in which the keyboard of Windows laptops will have a new integrated Copilot key.

A major surprise and we will see how it will be done in a few days. Let us remember that all types of computer equipment will be presented at CES 2024, and it will kick off on January 8. A change in the keyboard layout to which they will add a new key to access Copilot easily. As reported by Yusuf Mehdi, vice president of Microsoft "The introduction of the Copilot key marks the first significant change to the Windows PC keyboard in almost three decades. We believe it will allow people to more easily participate in the AI transformation" .

Regarding the operation of this key, it has no mystery. The moment you press the Copilot key, the Microsoft assistant will be automatically activated to help you with all types of tasks. Something curious, due to the simple fact that Windows has not made changes to the keyboards for years, so the incorporation of this key has surprised. Although it makes all the sense in the world. It is clear that artificial intelligence is here to stay. What was once a utopia is now a very close reality. We have all kinds of tools, whether artificial intelligence capable of generating images on their own, or conversational intelligence that answers any questions we have faster than a search engine. And in the case of Microsoft, which has been one of the companies that invests the most in this type of technology, it is a logical step to bring users closer to Copilot through a dedicated key for this. Obviously, this will not be seen on all laptops that come onto the market, but Microsoft partners, and there are not a few of them, will not hesitate to add this new button.
