Microsoft announced on Tuesday the release of the new Windows 11 for 2023, known as “Windows 11 32H2”, which is the latest version of the operating system.
Microsoft started rolling out the Windows 11 update in September last year initially to members participating in its Insider Program.
In a post, John Cable, Vice President of Windows Servicing and Delivery at Microsoft, said, “As Windows 11 2023 shares codebase with the 2022 version of Windows 11, features will be updated simply, such as the monthly update process, to provide a fast installation experience.”
He noted that those with eligible devices running Windows 11 2022 interested in experiencing the new improvements can do so by navigating to “Settings”, then “Windows Update”, activating “Get the latest updates” when available, and selecting “Check for updates”.
The new version of Windows 11 incorporates artificial intelligence technology. This version includes a chat program called “Cobalot,” resembling the popular chat program GPT for Open AI. Cobalot is a generative AI that can create human-like texts and other content with just a few words of human guidance. Cobalot relies on large language models developed and trained by Open AI, supported by Microsoft, using large datasets to be able to create email texts, answer questions, and perform tasks automatically. Microsoft upgraded its Bing search engine with artificial intelligence last year and now AI works on enhancing the latest version of Windows, the most widely used personal computer operating system in the world. Cobalot features special functions such as opening apps, changing display mode to dark, enabling Bluetooth, and providing guidance on capturing screenshots. Additionally, while browsing in the Edge browser, you can request a summary of page content from Cobalot. Currently, Windows 11 accounts for around 24% of desktop computers, according to StatCounter market research, while Windows 10, which will continue receiving support until 2025, dominates nearly 72% of the market. In a conference call with analysts last week, Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, stated they are witnessing rapid adoption of Windows 11 worldwide among enterprises.
