Microsoft Copilot is about to get a brand new look and additional features, including a voice mode with four new voices.
Windows Latest has some screenshots of how the new-look Copilot will work, and gone is the rather austere look of the previous incarnation and in its place there’s a new pastel-shaded user interface. While the recent addition of Copilot ‘Wave 2’ for Office 365 customers was very focused on enterprise users, the new Copilot 2.0 appears to be much more about making AI accessible for general users, with a redesigned home screen that invites you to explore.
Work it harder, make it better
Windows Latest reports that the new interface is faster and sleeker than the old one, and more on par with ChatGPT. Copilot 2.0 uses a card-based design, with each card encouraging you to use AI and explore its potential. So, you might find it asks you if you’d like to start a journal, or if you need some help getting to sleep. There’s also a new voice mode, so you can talk to Copilot for the first time, and in response, it will talk to you using one of four new voices – Meadow, Grove, Wave, and Canyon.
The new Copilot 2.0 will ask you your name when you first use it, then remember your name whenever you log in with your Microsoft account. To complement the completely redesigned interface there are two different modes – Night and Day. Day is brighter and full of pastel shades, while Night is a dark mode.
The new Copilot 2.0 appears to have been rolled out to users in India and Brazil. We’re not sure when it will be available to the rest of the world, and there’s also no word on a mobile version. ChatGPT recently rolled out Advanced Voice mode to ChatGPT Plus users, and Gemini already has Gemini Live up and running.
