Summary

  • Microsoft has enabled a new Computer Use feature for its Copilot AI to interact with websites and desktop applications, similar to OpenAI’s Operator or Anthropic’s Claude feature.
  • The tool can automate tasks like data entry, market research or processing invoices, and detect when an application or website screen changes.
  • It can function without failing or breaking, Microsoft said.
  • In December, Microsoft launched the Actions feature for its consumer Copilot, which performs tasks like booking restaurant reservations in the background.
  • While the Actions feature is limited to a few partners, Microsoft said Copilot Studio would be free to work with more websites and applications.
