Microsoft will soon be introducing a new feature called 'Circle to Copilot'
'Circle to Copilot' allows users to look up more information about something by drawing a circle over the text or image.
This feature first appeared in the Samsung Galaxy S24 and Google Pixel 8 family of phones. Now, Microsoft is introducing its own version of this user-friendly functionality to the Edge browser.
Furthermore, in the desktop version of Microsoft Edge, 'Circle to Copilot' adds the item you've circled to the Copilot sidebar
After making a circle, you can ask questions. In response, you will receive detailed answers from a text-based generative AI chatbot.
While the feature is still in its beta testing phase, interested users may already access the feature on Microsoft Edge Canary, which is a version of the web browser where users can access latest features by the developers before mainstream release.
