Microsoft’s Copilot Now Remembers Who You Are and Learns Your Visual Cues - Here's How

At Microsoft’s 50th-anniversary event in Redmond, Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, first introduced the new Copilot – a personal assistant that remembers who you are and adapts over time. The live demo displayed new “visual memory” features in the mobile app, tracking files you work on and images you view if you allow it. Suleyman hinted at future voice and avatar capabilities to give Copilot a recognizable presence. In a recent post on X, he shared different ways it can be used.

Suleyman, who joined Microsoft in March 2024 from Inflection AI and DeepMind, leads Microsoft’s consumer AI unit, overseeing Copilot, Bing, and Edge. His mission: integrate AI into everyday life. He described Copilot as more than software, a digital partner that helps manage tasks, from booking flights to storing personal preferences, and one that learns your habits.

In the live demo, Suleyman showed Copilot analyzing his açai bowl image and estimating its calories. He also shared that the AI struggled with tasks like calculating Microsoft’s 50-year revenue, candidly noting it was close but inaccurate.

His vision reflects a shift in how workers interact with AI. In an April interview, Suleyman said employees will collaborate with AI agents, reviewing their work rather than doing repetitive tasks.

Despite competition from OpenAI, Google, Meta, and Amazon, Microsoft remains committed. Suleyman warns users to test these tools, he encourages experimentation to learn both strengths and limits.

That anniversary event hit a snag when a protester interrupted Suleyman to highlight Microsoft’s Azure contracts with the Israeli military. He acknowledged the protest respectfully and continued.

Suleyman’s aim is to make Copilot AI a trusted presence in your life, far from being just a productivity tool.
