Copilot, Microsoft’s AI, is now available on Telegram

Microsoft Copilot, the Artificial Intelligence designed by the American company, and which already has millions of users worldwide, has also landed on Telegram. For now, it is in a beta phase, but users who wish to can already search for and find this service in a completely open way through the well-known instant messaging application.

Copilot joins Telegram

As explained by Neowin, Microsoft has decided to discreetly create a bot on Telegram that allows for chatting tasks from within the same application. By accepting the terms of use imposed by Microsoft, any Telegram user will be able to try out this service.

However, for now, the version that arrives on Telegram is a beta, which, for now, may present certain hallucinations, so it is important to use this tool with caution. In addition, it will only respond to text commands, and will not generate images, unlike the case of the Copilot version available through Microsoft Edge.

Telegram is one of the leading chat applications in the Western world

A strange couple with Copilot as a conjunction

This is a very curious collaboration between two brands, although both benefit from this union. On Microsoft’s side, millions of users will have very easy access to everything Copilot offers, without the need to install other applications or use services outside their usual routine. On Telegram’s side, it is evident that those most interested in generative Artificial Intelligence will visit the application more often and their traffic will be conveniently increased.

Microsoft Copilot, in this way, continues to show a great initiative to give prominence to one of the systems in which it has placed the most trust in recent years. In fact, some of the most notable improvements in recent days, such as the Recall tool, are functions driven through Copilot itself. Therefore, there is no doubt that, at least in Microsoft, projects based on Artificial Intelligence have come to stay indefinitely.

The “find my device” feature from Google will receive new improvements

Google continues to work on providing a better service to users, and they are currently focused on the functions of finding devices. This is shown in the new update of “find my device”, which, from now on, will offer the user more tools and options to manage the different peripherals that are connected to the mobile phone.

Improvements for remote management

As Android Police explains, these are the new features that will be coming to Google’s “find my device” function. In addition to being able to carry out this basic function, it will soon also allow for biometric linking so that it only activates when the user verifies their identity on the phone. Likewise, there is also a new remote lock setting that will prevent connected devices from being used until this lock is deactivated.

At the moment, there is no exact date for the arrival of this feature, but it is already being finalized to land on Android phones very soon. With this, “find my device” will take one of its biggest leaps in quality since Google started supporting this service.

Google’s interest in the remote

It is not too surprising that this news has come from Google, which, in addition to providing important privacy and security improvements to users, also gives them greater control over their devices. And it is that, in addition to the obvious benefits that this service implies, this decision is in line with another quite recent one, such as the activation of a new function that allows Google TV to find your lost TV remote.

It has been a long time since Google was just a search engine, and today it is one of the largest megacorporations on the planet. It has over 100,000 employees, all of them working in dozens of different departments. There have also been thousands of layoffs within the company, but there is still a considerable amount of human capital working daily. Rarely does a day go by without one of Google’s branches announcing some kind of innovation, so we will have to see what surprises the Alphabet brand has in store for the industry.

Google TV will help you find the remote control if you lose sight of it

If you are one of those forgetful people who never knows where they left the TV remote control, Google TV brings good news for you. This platform, which connects televisions with mobile devices, and provides a wide range of functions to Android TV, will also allow you to locate your remote control for those times when you have lost sight of it.

Locate your lost remote control

As explained by Android Authority, this feature seems to be coming in the Android 14 version for TV, and it would allow users to easily find their remote thanks to the “find my remote” function added to the system. With it, using your mobile as an intermediary (since, without the remote, you can’t activate the search, and if you find it, you no longer need it), the remote will emit an alert for 30 seconds so you can easily locate it.

When you activate this function, the controller will emit a small light that will act as a beacon, or it will emit a beep so that people can easily find said controller. Naturally, not all current controllers offer this type of feedback, so this function would only be available for controllers compatible with this functionality, whether it be with light, sound, or both.

The evolution of Google TV

Since Google started showing interest in the audiovisual field, it has tried to do so through different approaches. In fact, for most of this journey, its most well-known service was Google Play Movies, which, in recent months, merged into a new combination of services along with other services like Google Home: Google TV, thus connecting not only audiovisual content, but also television services with smart devices.

In this way, Google TV has become a tool that has quickly integrated into millions of homes in the blink of an eye, and with constant improvements and updates that arrive little by little. The most recent one is the localization of the remote control, but soon more news will come that only Google knows, and that many users will be eager to know.

The Windows 11 Recall feature of 24H2 is already working on current hardware

Recall, the function driven through Copilot that allows your AI to remember everything you have previously done on your PC, is already being tested on current hardware with very positive performance results. This feature is expected to arrive in the 24H2 version of Windows 11, but Microsoft has also taken the lead to verify that it works efficiently on current systems.

Microsoft Copilot Download

Successful Recall Testing

As some insiders have revealed through social media, the Recall tool is capable of functioning even on hardware that is lower than what is commonly thought. For example, on a PC with a 3rd generation Snapdragon 7c+ processor, with 3.4GB of RAM and without any NPU on the device, a chip that is considered essential for anything related to Artificial Intelligence nowadays.

This makes it clear that low-spec computers will be able to enjoy the functionalities of Recall without any problem, since although AI usually requires a high level of processing, in the case of this Copilot function, neither a powerful chipset nor high-capacity RAM will be needed. Therefore, there are now more users who are looking forward to the arrival of Windows 11 24H2.

A powerful tool… but invasive

Recall was one of the most talked about announcements by Microsoft in recent days, as it is a tool that, although not new in the industry (Apple already announced a similar system), implies substantial changes in terms of what a system can offer to the user. This capability is due to the fact that the AI constantly monitors everything that happens on the screen, which reflects that Copilot has great capabilities with Recall… but it also has a certain invasive component that generates mistrust in users who value their privacy.

Anyway, it is a fact that Artificial Intelligence is here to stay, and there are many companies in a race to showcase the most impressive advancements. As a result, Copilot has received constant updates in recent months to expand to all kinds of applications, where Microsoft has found it particularly valuable as a support tool in its workplace-focused services.

Google Wallet will remind you of the advantages of each card before paying

Google Wallet, or Pay depending on the region, continues to present new improvements that offer leaps in the quality of life for users who regularly make payments through online stores. Thus, one of its star novelties stands out, the possibility that, below each card before making a payment, you can take a look at the advantages of using it, so that you don’t miss any promotion or higher quality service.

Descriptions on the cards

As Google explains through its blog, its payment platform will now show the main advantages of using each card so that users can choose the one that suits them best on each occasion. Likewise, improvements have also been made in systems such as “buy now, pay later”, or in the methods of entering card data to make it work in a more intuitive way.

Today there are many possible conditions that a debit card can have, as well as the advantages it can offer. Each company practically bets on a particular package of advantages, and it is often not easy to have all that information in mind. In this way, the Google Wallet application will show you key aspects, such as the cashback of each card, the loyalty points it offers, and other advantages that may be of special interest to you.

The rise of Google Wallet and virtual cards

Decades ago, it was said that debit cards would largely replace cash, and that has indeed been the case, as more and more money is being moved through cards rather than coins and bills. However, the new trend in money is even making cards disappear, since nowadays, thanks to smartphones, NFC chips, and applications like Google Pay or Wallet, or similar ones, any user can make any payment comfortably from their smartphone, or even from their watch.

This denotes the rapid passage of time and the changes that occur as a result. So much so that many banks even offer virtual cards that work fully and do not require a physical card as such. Physical cards can also be registered in virtual wallets, but with a virtual card, there is no physical card to worry about.

NVIDIA’s impressive earnings: 26.000 billion in their last quarter

NVIDIA, the well-known company that manufactures computer components and graphics cards, has recently announced a financial report that shows impressive figures in terms of economy. In fact, with a staggering revenue of 26 billion in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, it is evident that NVIDIA is going through a period of prosperity in terms of business.

Great benefits at NVIDIA

As NVIDIA has publicly disclosed, the first quarter of NVIDIA’s fiscal year 2025 has achieved outstanding results. The mentioned figure of 26 billion stands out even more when considering that, in the same quarter of 2023, the company recorded 7.9 billion. This implies that on a year-over-year basis, NVIDIA’s revenues have skyrocketed by a staggering 262%.

Part of this exponential rise can also be seen in other data, such as the increase of 427% compared to the previous quarter, or for example, the company’s dividends rose up to 150% in a significant increase for investors. With all this and more, NVIDIA has shown strength through its quarterly financial report.

Your path in the market

Today, NVIDIA can boast of being one of the major manufacturers in the computer sector. Competing with other industry giants such as AMD or Intel, NVIDIA has always been able to slightly outperform them, both in the power of its components and in prestige and commercial success. That is why, in addition, in a growing market, the company is able to register such economic figures.

Furthermore, NVIDIA has also not hesitated to diversify its market, conducting research in the Artificial Intelligence market, or with markets such as cloud gaming. The latter, GeForce Now, is in fact an increasingly popular tool among users, as it allows them to enjoy graphically demanding video games without the need for the hardware on which the content is streamed to have the necessary characteristics to play it natively.

YouTube launches Dream Track, a tool to create music with AI

With Artificial Intelligence being a trendy element nowadays, YouTube has wanted to join the party, and it does so by launching a tool that allows users to create music through this technology that currently captures all the attention. Dream Track, thus, has been showcased by the Google-owned platform to reflect the changing world around Artificial Intelligence.

Creating music with AI on YouTube

As YouTube has publicly announced, the Dream Track tool is a system powered by Artificial Intelligence technology that allows users to design musical pieces. It is currently an experiment that will be included in the creation of YouTube Shorts to “invent” music based on the commands that the user enters into the system.

This is, thus, the umpteenth Artificial Intelligence-based tool that Google has shown in recent days, after presenting all kinds of innovations at the recent I/O event, which demonstrated the current importance of AI in the development of applications and services.

The controversy of Artificial Intelligence

This is a very curious and striking advance, but it also raises numerous dilemmas that make many people look at this novelty with skepticism. After all, this tool simulates human knowledge and intellectual abilities to carry out creations that, in general, usually have something to convey, and that essence, when there is such an intense use of Artificial Intelligence, dilutes inevitably.

In fact, there are many celebrities, especially those in the music industry, who have shown their public stance against this type of tools, since music generated by AI lacks the human value and intentionality of an author when creating their work. This is a much-discussed debate that has also affected generative AI for images or text, as they often perform functions that have other implicit ideas in a way that an Artificial Intelligence can never replicate.

Windows 11 developers will have improvements in version 24H2

The 24H2 version of Windows 11, the update that will bring a wide range of changes to the current operating system on Microsoft’s most modern devices, will also be a highly anticipated update by developers. The reason? The 24H2 will include, among other things, improvements in tools and usability for developers, making their work within the system easier.

Improvements for developers in Windows 11

As Neowin points out, Microsoft is preparing a new build that will update the existing developer tools in the 2023 version of Windows 11, and these changes will have a positive impact when it comes to offering new solutions to the needs of developers. In this way, the 24H2 version is shaping up to be interesting, not only for users, but also for developers.

It seems, therefore, that Microsoft also wants to give prominence to technical sections that niche users will value within Windows 11. In fact, among other novelties, patch 24H2 will also include a tool that will estimate the compatibility between software and hardware of each user, something that will greatly facilitate the lives of those who have devices with more limited operational capacity.

The buzz around Windows 11’s 24H2

It hasn’t been long since the arrival of Windows 11 version 24H2 was confirmed, but it was striking because, for many months, numerous rumors were placing the second half of 2024 as a key date to launch a new version of Windows that, instead of updating Windows 11, would imply a numerical leap that would bring Windows 12 after certifying that it is not succeeding commercially.

However, despite the fact that this year Microsoft continues to place its trust in Windows 11, there is no doubt that the 24H2 update that will arrive in the coming months could represent a strong blow on the functional level, since, although Windows 11 is barely three years old, in that time there has been an exponential development of Artificial Intelligence that is not being fully exploited in the current version of Windows 11. Therefore, it is estimated that the 24H2 version will come with important changes in Artificial Intelligence, an area in which Microsoft has been wanting to position itself as a leader for some time.

Microsoft’s AI will monitor everything you do on screen

Microsoft remains focused on being at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence in the world. Therefore, through a new announcement, the company has introduced the Recall tool, capable of remembering everything you have done on your computer through constant and permanent monitoring. This has interesting uses, but it has also raised concerns about how invasive this tool can be.

Recall: Microsoft reminds you

Recall, or “memories”, is the name of this new Artificial Intelligence-based feature, which aims to bring a significant change in terms of Windows usability. With this system, users will be able to ask the AI about various actions they have performed in the past while using their PC. Recall records everything that happens on the screen, including both the content that appears and the actions that the user takes on their computer.

This feature has been announced at a recent Microsoft event, where once again they demonstrate their interest in turning Artificial Intelligence into one of their main emblems. In fact, with advances like this, it is evident that Microsoft is one of the companies that has gained the greatest advantage in the AI market, which gives them an advantageous position in this sector as well.

The ethical limits of AI

The fact that Microsoft has released a feature that is monitoring everything that happens on the user’s screen once again highlights the importance of having certain privacy limits in the services that a user receives. Nowadays, especially in the European Union, there are laws that protect users, but despite that, this exposure ends up being much more invasive than other systems launched to date.

On the other hand, Artificial Intelligence is also being regulated by the European Commission, whose law, currently being prepared, will eventually come with a draft that will establish limits and restrictions on the practices that AI can carry out, at least in European markets.

Controversy in Slack: they have trained their AI using user data without permission

The controversy is served within Slack, a company that in recent months boasted about the capabilities of its Artificial Intelligence. The reason: the training process that their AI has undergone has been carried out by collecting information from Slack users without their consent. This, as expected, has generated many complaints from its users.

Slack Download

An AI trained without consent

As users of Slack have revealed on social media in recent days, the communication platform focused on businesses has included a brief message in its fine print warning that all information deposited in Slack can be used for training its Artificial Intelligence, Slack AI. This, being a hidden notice that could have gone completely unnoticed, generated numerous criticisms from its community.

Slack, on the other hand, wanted to make it clear that, although the company is using user data to train its AI-based systems, anyone can contact the company to request on a personal level that their data not be used for the training of these systems that apply machine learning to become more effective.

Slack’s plans with AI

The intention of Slack to compete in the booming Artificial Intelligence segment was already known, a market that is not yet fully defined and with a scenario that will provide an advantage to companies that have been able to occupy this space more quickly. That is why the company has preferred to take all the relevant shortcuts, including the use of information from its users without having consulted them beforehand. Users can still choose to refuse the use of their data, but the notice, for many users, comes late and secretly.

Legally, it is a problem that another company like OpenAI has already gone through, and they have solved it through the creation of codes of good practices. Since it is not an illegal act in itself, but negative in terms of public opinion, Slack will have to consider how to address this issue in the short term. Because, even OpenAI has faced complaints from companies like The New York Times, after breaching an agreement between both companies due to a supposed error by ChatGPT.
