AI went from being an exotic topic, understandable and usable by just elite PC users, to being an important part of computer use in an amazingly short period of time. Over the past year, numerous AI services have appeared, including Microsoft\u2019s Copilot, a rebranding and extension of Bing. But Copilot is not a single service, but three separate offerings\u2014Copilot, Copilot Pro, and Copilot+ PC. Copilot is the base service and is part of Windows 11 release 23H2, being a replacement for the Bing browser, and offers many of the basic AI enhancements to a simple browser-based search. Copilot Pro is a subscription service, and provides AI services and enhancements to Windows 365 users.<\/p>\n

Copilot+ PC is a somewhat different animal. While pretty much any PC can perform AI tasks, if the tasks are complex, or if there is a lot of data to parse, especially if it\u2019s not contained on the computer itself, it\u2019s easy for a PC that is not enhanced with AI components to bog down or take significant time to complete the desired task. Copilot and Copilot Pro both use the cloud to perform much of the AI intensive work, and are severally limited many times by not being able to operate when not connected to the internet. Copilot+ PCs contain an additional component called an NPU, or Neural Processing Unit. This NPU is incorporated into the CPU as with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite, as well as the forthcoming AMD Ryzen 300AI series of processors.<\/p>\n
