"Microsoft is rolling out some significant changes to its Copilot AI assistant today. There's a new groups feature that connects multiple people into a Copilot chat, memory to let Copilot learn things about you, a new "real talk" mode that will bring back some of Copilot's early personality, and more. Copilot Groups is designed for groups of friends, classmates, and even teammates to use Copilot in a single session. Microsoft is targeting this at people who need to make a plan or solve problems together, and the company is supporting up to 32 people in Copilot Groups, in an effort to make AI more social."
""My guess is you're going to see groups of two or three dominate this," says Jacob Andreou, CVP of product and growth at Microsoft AI, in an interview with The Verge. "I think it's actually going to be a lot of small groups, it's not going to be like your long-running group chat suddenly has an AI in it.""
Copilot Groups connects multiple participants into a shared Copilot chat and supports up to 32 people. The feature targets friends, classmates, and teammates who need to make plans or solve problems together. New memory capabilities allow Copilot to learn personal details to improve future interactions. A "real talk" mode restores some of Copilot's earlier personality. Additional updates include better handling of health-related queries and a new Mico voice character. The Copilot Groups feature is launching in the US consumer version and is not available in the business-focused product at rollout.
