US-based technology giant Microsoft launched its digital assistant called Cortana for Windows 10 in 2015. Using this digital assistant, users had the opportunity to experience a similar experience to Google Assistant and Siri. However, Cortana was never as popular as desired. As such, Microsoft has started to gradually kill Cortana since 2019. We have seen the first stage of this in iOS and Android versions.
However, it has long been spoken that Microsoft will end Cortana on Windows, not just the mobile version. In fact, according to recent claims, Microsoft would unplug the Windows version of Cortana by the end of 2023. Now, finally, there has been a tangible development regarding this. Microsoft has officially announced when it will remove Cortana from the Windows ecosystem.
Cortana is being removed from Windows this month!
Making a statement about the Cortana application on Windows on its official website, Microsoft announced that the software will no longer be supported as of August. However, Cortana, which is integrated into Teams and Outlook, will continue to be supported for a while. Microsoft also made some statements about the process after Cortana.
Copilot has brought the much anticipated end of Cortana!
Introducing a new artificial intelligence tool called Copilot at the Build 2023 event it held a few months ago, Microsoft said that Copilot will replace Cortana. Copilot will have a structure that can be used not only for Windows 11, but also for other services of the company. In fact, this new feature would eliminate the need for Cortana. With the statement made today, we can say that the expected has come true.
