Microsoft yesterday unveiled Copilot+ PCs, a new class of personal computers with novel AI-powered features.
Why it matters: The software giant is hoping to use the excitement around AI to drive a new hardware buying cycle.
Driving the news: Microsoft debuted two of its own Copilot+ PCs, and said more will come from partners like HP, Samsung and others.
It also announced a new feature, Recall, designed to help people find anything they've previously viewed on their computer.
And it teased a version of AI chatbot ChatGPT, using GPT-4o, coming soon to Windows.
What they're saying: "We're entering this new era where computers can not only understand us, but can actually anticipate what we want and our intent," Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told reporters at a press event.
