# Microsoft’s New AI Agent for Copilot+ PCs: Hands-Free Control Just Got Smarter
Microsoft is doubling down on AI integration with Windows 11, unveiling a game-changing feature for Copilot+ PCs: Agent, an on-device AI assistant designed to simplify system adjustments. Imagine asking your PC, “How do I control my computer by voice?” or “Make my mouse pointer bigger,” and having it not just explain—but actually implement those changes for you.
## What Can Agent Do?
Agent isn’t just another chatbot—it’s a proactive helper that can:
– Adjust settings automatically (with user permission).
– Answer troubleshooting questions in natural language.
– Support voice commands for hands-free control.
Currently, Agent only understands English, but Microsoft hints at multilingual support coming soon. The feature will debut on Copilot+ PCs with Snapdragon processors, with Intel and AMD versions following shortly after.
### Beyond Agent: More AI Upgrades for Windows 11
Microsoft is also supercharging Click to Do, Copilot’s context-aware assistant. Now, it can:
– Convert highlighted text into bulleted lists.
– Draft content directly into Word.
– Schedule meetings or send Teams messages.
– Export data to Excel with a single click.
– Activate Reading Coach and Immersive Reader for accessibility.
## Good News for Non-Copilot+ PC Users
While Copilot+ PCs are stealing the spotlight, Microsoft hasn’t forgotten other Windows 11 users. Upcoming updates include:
– Customizable Start menu layouts.
– AI-powered File Explorer enhancements.
– Copilot Vision, allowing screen-sharing with the AI assistant for real-time guidance.
### The Bottom Line
Microsoft is pushing Windows 11 into an AI-first future, where your PC doesn’t just respond—it anticipates. Whether you’re tweaking settings, drafting documents, or managing workflows, these upgrades promise a smoother, smarter experience.
