Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

The key seems pretty pointless. I disable cortana anyways so idk why i’d want a key for it lol. It’s other function is search apparently but I already use the win key for that

Why would you need a special key for that?

You don’t, any more than you need the Windows key. MS just wants accessing AI on their platform to be quick and ubiquitous. This is their solution.
