Microsoft Introduces 'Copilot Key' to Launch AI Assistant on New Windows Laptops
- Microsoft introduced a new Copilot key to launch its AI assistant chatbot, already on some 2023 Windows laptops
- Pressing the Copilot key registers as pressing Left-Shift + Windows key + F23 simultaneously
- F23 keys were on old IBM Model F and Model M keyboards with 122 keys, still sold today
- The Copilot key is reprogrammable, despite some OEMs not allowing customization out of the box
- Microsoft wants the Copilot key to be a requirement for Windows 11 PCs, but its future usefulness is uncertain
