Okay, Prism emulation for Windows on Arm, effectively bridging the x86/x64/Arm gap.
Okay, now we’re talking about the partnerships between Microsoft, Intel, AMD and Qualcomm. The video features Gelsinger, Su and Amon, as an Avengers super team. I guess Apple is Thanos in this case?
We’re now at Windows Copilot Runtime, an operating system-level framework that allows developers to better leverage the power of an NPU for their apps.
The idea of having a ‘history’ for your PC, similar to a web browser, that allows you to work offline is truly innovative. If it’s on-device and secure, I’m definitely in favor of this kind of AI.
Windows Recall also includes Timeline, which lets you browse your device history to find what you’re looking for.
We are focused on privacy and security. Call data is used only on-device, with control over what data is kept on your device, and will never be used to train Microsoft’s AI models.
We’re now at Recall, which promises to leverage your usage history with on-device AI so you can retrieve data you didn’t even know you’d forgotten was processed on your PC.

Yusuf Medhi takes the stage to tell us about the new category of PC platforms.
Copilot + PC is the new platform that Microsoft is introducing, although we don’t know much yet. This is absolutely about integrating AI into the entire Windows platform, not just a tool slapped like a barnacle on the side of a non-AI operating system.
We’ll start with Copilot.
We’re on our way now as Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella takes the stage. I can already tell you that given the number of Qualcomm people I’ve seen here and how the Copilot logo is plastered all over campus, it’s not really a mystery that this event will be heavily weighted toward the gigantic AI ambitions from Microsoft. and that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X chips will play a pretty big role in Microsoft’s Surface device plans.
Here we go, folks! This is John, live from Microsoft’s Redmond campus in Washington state, where the venerable tech giant is holding a special event ahead of its annual Microsoft Build conference. We’re all expecting exciting things from the event, so stay tuned as I bring you everything I see and hear in the next hour.
