Microsoft Edge’s Copilot Mode Now Fully Live with AI-Powered Actions and Journeys Preview

5 days ago

Microsoft Edge’s Copilot Mode is now available to all users, offering a more integrated AI experience that brings Microsoft’s AI assistant deeper into the browser. The feature combines AI-generated answers, search results, and web navigation into a single, unified interface. It can pull information from all open tabs—not just the one currently active—enabling users to ask Copilot to summarize content across multiple pages or compare products shown in different windows. Originally introduced as an experimental feature, Copilot Mode is now rolling out broadly, along with new capabilities in limited preview. One of the most notable additions is Copilot Actions, an agentic feature designed to perform tasks on your behalf, such as unsubscribing from newsletters or booking reservations. However, these tools are still in early stages and not fully reliable. Microsoft includes a clear warning: the feature is “intended for research and evaluation purposes” and “can make mistakes.” In testing, Copilot successfully unsubscribed from a mailing list, but failed to delete an email it claimed to have removed. It also falsely reported sending an email composed directly in Gmail, though the message was never delivered. When attempting to book a reservation at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City, Copilot selected October 26th instead of the requested date of November 26th, despite confirming the correct date in its response. Copilot Mode can now use your browsing history to deliver more personalized and context-aware responses—though this requires explicit permission. In addition, Microsoft is launching Journeys in preview, an AI-powered tool that organizes your browsing activity into thematic categories and suggests relevant next steps. While the feature hasn’t been widely tested yet, it could help users quickly return to topics they’ve explored before. To enable Copilot Mode, users need to download Microsoft Edge and toggle the feature on via Microsoft’s website. For users in the U.S., Copilot Actions and Journeys are available through a dedicated section on the site. As AI integration in browsers continues to evolve, Microsoft is pushing to make Edge a central hub for intelligent, proactive web experiences—though the current state of the technology still requires careful oversight.
