Welcome to Microsoft’s Copilot Release Notes. Here we’ll provide regular updates on what’s happening with Copilot, from new features to firmware updates and more.

GPT-5 now live in Microsoft Copilot

We’re excited to announce that GPT-5 is now available in Microsoft Copilot across all markets and platforms—including web, Windows, Mac, and mobile.

GPT‑5 is the most advanced AI system to date. It’s a unified system built to understand when to respond quickly and when to think more deeply, delivering expert-level results with less effort from you. At its core is a fast, high‑throughput model for everyday questions, a deeper reasoning model (GPT-5 thinking) for complex tasks, and a real‑time router that intelligently selects the right approach based on your intent and the conversation’s complexity.

With the new Smart Mode, Copilot automatically adapts to your task and routes you to the most capable model, removing the need to switch or guess. Whether you’re solving complex problems, writing creatively, or turning ideas into visuals, Smart Mode delivers the smartest, most intuitive experience yet.

This update is not only about faster or better responses. It’s designed to remove friction so you can focus on your ideas instead of the interface. That means more creativity and less configuration.

How to try it:

• Open Copilot on any device
• Select Smart Mode in the Composer
• Start exploring with GPT-5—free to try right now

We can’t wait to see how this helps unlock your creative flow. Try it today and experience the future of AI-powered productivity.

Copilot Mode now available in Microsoft Edge

Copilot Mode is a new experimental mode that enhances the way we browse. Copilot Mode adds intelligent AI capabilities that transform Edge into a proactive, streamlined assistant. By combining chat, search, and web navigation into a single input box, Copilot Mode helps users make sense of open tabs, anticipate tasks, and stay in flow all while meeting Microsoft’s high standards of security, privacy, and performance. You can speak naturally to Copilot, use it on any webpage, and soon organize your browsing into topic-based journeys. Advanced tasks like bookings and errands are coming soon, with privacy always protected.

Copilot Mode is free for a limited time and available now on Edge for Windows and Mac. Opt in anytime through your browser settings.

Try it today at aka.ms/copilot-mode.

Copilot Vision is now built into moto ai

Copilot Vision is now just a tap away—fully integrated into moto ai1 on select devices2, including the latest motorola razr and edge devices. With this launch, users in the U.S and other regions worldwide3 can access Copilot Vision directly from their device. Just open moto ai and tap “Ask Copilot Vision” to begin.

Copilot Vision turns your camera into an intelligent companion—powered by conversational AI that interprets what you see and responds instantly. Whether you’re enhancing your home decor, diving into new hobbies, or streamlining your travel experience, Copilot Vision delivers real-time, helpful insights.

For example, plant-loving Motorola users can use their device’s front or back camera to analyze their plant’s health real-time. And razr users can do this directly from the external display or in tent mode, getting their questions answered without needing to flip open the device. It’s seamless, helpful, and always ready—right where you need it.

With support for over 50 languages—just like Copilot Voice—Copilot Vision is designed to be intuitive, inclusive, and accessible for users around the world. When it comes to privacy, users can feel comfortable knowing that they’re in full control—Copilot Vision only accesses the device’s camera or microphone when explicitly activated.

Disclaimers

• Motorola Account login is required to access moto ai features. An internet or cellular connection is needed for functionality.
• moto ai is available on select motorola razr and motorola edge devices.
• Copilot Vision is available in select markets, with more coming soon.

• Rearranging your living room decor
• Navigating a confusing airport terminal
• Trying to identify a strange object
• Or just asking, “Does this setup look right?”

Copilot Vision on Windows is here

We’re also excited to share that Copilot Vision on Windows is now available in the US and coming to more non-European countries by mid-July. When enabled, Copilot can see what you see on your screen and offer helpful, voice-guided support—whether you’re working across apps, browsing the web, or navigating a tricky task.

Need help finding an app? Want tips while editing a photo? Trying to understand a form or complete a task in a new tool? Copilot Vision can follow along, offer insights, and even highlight exactly where to click with Highlights, all while you stay in control.

Copilot Vision is fully opt-in and only activates when you choose to turn it on. You can start or stop sharing at any time with a single click.
