- Windows 11 has a new compilation preview on the Beta channel
- It comes with an AI in configuration agent to help you change the options
- A new frequent question related to hardware in the configuration has also been introduced.
Windows 11 has a new preview of compilation and comes with a big change: the introduction of AI to the configuration application to help the owners of Copilot+ PC to find and choose the options they need.
This is a new work that Microsoft announced last week, but the company has just said that it would try soon, at some point this month. Well, that stage has been established, and this ability has been debuted in Preview Build 26120.3964 on the Beta Canal.
That previous version comes with the full AFFEE present in the configuration, although, of course, this is only the initial stages of the tests. Also keep in mind that this is only for co -pilot+ PCs, it will not be applicable to normal Windows 11 PCs, since it takes advantage of the NPU Peppy that is aboard the Copilot++ devices. (Microsoft also revealed fresh incoming sweets for machines without villages+, it must also be taken into account).
As I have covered before, the AI agent works through the usual consultation model. You write what you are looking for in the configuration through a bar at the top of the panel using a normal conversation language. For example, I could ask something like: “How do I put the YouTube video reproducing my portable computer on my TV screen?” and the AI will find that relevant configuration for the screen reflex.
The idea is to facilitate settings configuration or find several easier capabilities, and with some options, IA will even recommend specific options for you.
Another change in the configuration application in this previous view compilation is a new frequent question related to hardware that provides information about the specifications of your PC and how good they are. This is nasta in the System> on Panel within the configuration, under the device specifications list.
The questions and answers are specifically related to their PC, so if it only has 8 GB of RAM, for example, and you are concerned that you can slow down the applications, or also the PC games, there will be a section on exactly what that memory load means for you in terms of expected levels of performance.
Analysis: PC and precision specifications cards
This is the first time we see that these frequent hardware questions appear in the tests, although curiously, it is not associated with the ‘related PC specifications cards (small information panels) that carry the individual details of their CPU, GPU, system RAM and storage (which have been seen in the tests before, less frequent questions).
Presumably, these pieces of the puzzle will be united soon, delivering an extra useful for relative PC rookies that may not be so sure of what all these specifications mean.
As for the AI agent, it looks ingenious and offers many promises, but there are some notable catches here. First, AI could be wrong when it comes to the specific recommendations given for certain configurations (but luckily not in terms of the basic search and visualization of the relevant options).
Therefore, we must be cautious in that regard, and it will be interesting to see how the precise testers of Windows 11 find the system and what is the initial feedback, because this could Be one of AI’s best uses that Microsoft has found so far. Or the worst if it comes out horribly out of the rails, but Microsoft does not seem too ambitious here, so, so that should not happen.
Second, only the English language is compatible with the configuration agent for now. Finally, only co -pilot+ PCs with Snapdragon processors in the tests are admitted, but Microsoft has said that the agent will come to Copilot+ devices with AMD and Intel CPU soon enough. Maybe that is the next previous version, then.
