Today, a limited preview of a new opt-in feature in Microsoft Edge has been released, enhancing the browsing experience through AI that “sees” the page as the user does and interacts via voice to provide insights and suggestions.
According to Microsoft, this feature, called Copilot Vision, is available starting today to a select group of paid Copilot Pro subscribers through Copilot Labs.
“It is a new way to invite AI along with you as you navigate the web, tucked neatly into the bottom of your Edge browser whenever you want to ask for help,” explains a Microsoft post. “It’s almost like having a second set of eyes as you browse, just turn on Copilot Vision to instantly scan, analyze, and offer insights based on what it sees.”
The feature was initially announced in October. It is part of a broader effort by Microsoft and others to extend the capabilities of AI as agents and companions.
However, some users have faced challenges with Microsoft’s recent transition from an older, more utilitarian version of its Copilot sidebar for Edge to a more conversational and less utilitarian consumer version.
