Recently, Microsoft announced a significant step forward, introducing a new Copilot key for Windows 11 PCs. This marks a shift towards seamlessly weaving AI into the Windows system and simplify the computing experience, making 2024 the Year of the AI PC.

Below are the key highlights from the announcement:
