Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Microsoft Surface Copilot + PC Event: Everything Revealed in 13 Minutes”.
Today, we’re going beyond the cloud to the device removing those fundamental constraints of power in space, reducing latency, ensuring privacy, We Believe AI will be distributed. The richest AI experiences will harness the power of the cloud and the edge working together in concert. This, in turn, will lead to a new category of devices that turn the world bu itself into a prompt devices that can instantly see us hear reason about our intent and our surroundings. For us, this Vision starts with our most beloved and most widely used canvas windows, and it’s why we are introducing an entirely new class of Windows, PCS engineered to unleash the power of distributed AI across the edge and Cloud. We call this new category, copilot plus PCS.
We’Ve reimagined the entirety of the PC From the Inside Out. We’Ve made a huge leap forward in technical capability to usher in this new category and even with all this power, these new PCS are unbelievably thin light and beautiful. I’M going to show you these in a minute, but let’s start first by describing what makes them unique. First, they are the most powerful Windows PCS ever built. Second, they give you access to the most advanced AI available with Microsoft, co-pilot and finally, they’re going to introduce all new productivity, creativity and communication capabilities that I think of literally as superpowers. Let’S start, first, by talking about performance, co-pilot plus PCS introduce a new systems. Architecture, powered by the CPU GPU and an allnew npu running at an incredible 40 trillion operations per second 40 trillion. We also completely rearchitecturing to optimize performance and Battery the result.
Co-Pilot plus PCS are the fastest Windows PCS ever built, and if we wanted to do a comparison, they’re 58 % faster than the most advanced MacBook Air with the M3 processor and all of that with a battery that can last all day all right. Next, we talked about Microsoft, co-pilot, we’ve, updated Microsoft, co-pilot, your everyday AI, companion by reimagining. What co-pilot can do on Windows? Let’S take a look. It’S going to be easier than ever to call on co-pilot, with just a tap on your keyboard or on the center of your windows. Taskbar. As you see here, we’re simplifying The Experience, we’re making it more personal, we’re making it faster to get to what you want.
We’Re also going to make it a flexible, app experience, so you can resize it. You can snap it or you can even maximize it and run it full screen and one of the great things now when you have c-al and windows is. I can now use two windows and I can literally drag and drop something from one window to the other, like in this case with the northern lights, and I’m able to ask it hey, tell me about this phenomena that happened in Seattle last weekend, and I get A great set of information on it later later this year, you’re going to see co- pilot show up in Windows in settings where it’s going to provide helpful suggestions for you. So, for example, here when you go into Windows settings and you need to conf figure PC with one click, copile will help you or you can get things done in fewer steps. When you go to file explorer, for example, you can quickly get a photo and you can edit it without having to open an app or even what’s great one of my favorites within notifications itself. So when you’re on your Windows desktop – and you get a notification, you can now simply click on that notification and co-pilot.
For example. In this case, we answer that question to reply to an email with the right PowerPoint just with a click and we’re really excited to bring the latest technology from our partners at open aai to co-pilot. I’M delighted to share that GPT 40 with amazing text, voice and vision capabilities will soon be available in co-pilot. Let me show you a preview one of our developers, Ryan uh, simply shared his screen with copilot, while he was playing Minecraft now. What you’re going to see here is two voices. The first will be Ryan.
The second will be co-pilot and he’s going to be having a natural conversation like he would with a friend while he plays let’s watch this experience, hey co-pilot how’s it going hey. I’M doing great and it looks like you’re about to dive into some Minecraft ready to build, explore and maybe dodge a few Ms yeah, I’m trying to figure out how to make a sword. My son plays this game all the time and I have no idea what I’m doing no worries I’m here to help you impress your son.
I see you’ve got a crafting table in front of you, which is a great start to craft a sword. You’Ll need some materials. Can you open your inventory? Just press e on your keyboard yeah. Do I have what I need? Let’S see, you’ve got some sticks perfect for the swords handle, but it looks like you’re missing the material for the blade you can use wood, Stone. Iron, gold or Diamond all right: let’s pause it there for a second. Did you see how copilot not only could understand that he was in Minecraft, but it could also understand Ryan’s request for help and assess the inventory on his screen.
Well, it gets better as Ryan continues. He gets a surprise that co-pilot amazingly identified and it tailor interaction. Let’S watch, let’s start by gathering some wood or stone, shall we head out and find some resources yeah? That sounds great. Oh my God! What’S that? Oh no! It’S a zombie run. You need to get away from it fast, either Sprint away or quickly build a tower of blocks straight up to get out of its reach. If you can find a shelter or dig into the side of a hill, do it now just make sure it can’t reach? Is you all right? I think I might be safe now, Co, that was a close one, great job finding shelter. So that was honestly for us yeah for us that was honestly a magic moment to discover how Coop pilot with GPD 40 could immediately identify and adapt and be helpful on a screen that it had no knowledge of until it saw it. In this case, a surprise. Zombie spawn – and I love this example, because it demonstrate how copilot can become a natural and helpful part of your entire Windows Experience. Every cop plus PC will have the building blocks needed to deliver outstanding performance, including 16 GB of RAM a minimum of 256 GB of SSD storage and integrated neural Processing Unit or an npu npus specialize in The Matrix math needed for AI and the npus on copilot, Plus PCS are the most powerful in the PC category capable of over 40 trillion operations. For second, this is a step change in AI performance, allowing AI that is lightning fast and always working even with multiple AI workloads running concurrently, not only that these npus barely sip a few watts of power, even when fully utilized, we have brought that same focus on Efficiency to every part of the copile plus PCS, we were Relentless in finding ways to reduce power consumption systemwide the result is unprecedented battery life with all of your AI today, today, we’re debuting copile plus PCS, on the arm architecture with the Snapdragon X Series, and we Were excited to partner with Qualcomm to Designed this entirely new chip together, and we rebuilt Windows 11 from the inside out for arm.
As a result, copy plus PCS on Snapdragon X will deliver up to 15 hours of web browsing and up to 22 hours of local video playback. That is 20 % more than the latest MacBook Air 15 in, in fact, that’s right. In fact, copile Plus species outperformed the MacBook Air 15 in by up to 23 % on Peak Performance and, more importantly, up to 58 % on sustained multi-ad through performance alongside our partners. We are incredibly excited to enter this new era of AI and show you what copilot, plus PCS, can do introducing the first ever co-pilot plus PCS from surface the all new Surface laptop and Surface Pro.
