Microsoft’s ambitious progress prepares for 2024: A summary of 2023 advancements
At the end of 2023, Microsoft took several important decisions that paved the way for an aggressive 2024. The technology company issued security updates, deactivated the ms-appinstaller URI scheme to stop the spread of malware, and revealed a new tiny11 version for ARM64 processors, all while getting ready for the launching of a new Surface product range and an innovative Copilot application.
Microsoft’s Trials with ARM64 Chips
NTDEV, a division of Microsoft known for its significant work on operating systems, has introduced a new tiny11 core designed for ARM64 processors. The primary goal of this new core is to enhance performance and save disc space. However, it is primarily intended for use in virtual machines rather than physical devices. This action highlights Microsoft’s dedication to improving the ARM64 architecture, which is an important focus for the industry.
The Expectation of CES 2024
As the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024 approaches, there have been early reports concerning Microsoft’s planned items. The IT industry has been buzzing over a new Lenovo laptop running Windows 11, which comes with a detachable display that can also be used as an Android tablet. LG’s refreshed Gramme series, which includes smartphones with the most recent processors and designs, is also anticipated to create a significant impact. There are rumours going around that Microsoft plans to release the Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6 in the spring of 2024. These devices are said to come with better screens, updated processors, and enhanced AI features.
Microsoft’s AI Assistant Project
Microsoft recently released its AI-based assistant, Copilot, as a mobile application for Android and iOS. The debut comes after Dell’s presentation of a prototype that shows how AI assistants will potentially interact with operating systems in the future. Although the current version of Copilot does not align with this concept, Microsoft has reported a significant level of user interaction with over 1.9 billion talks in 2023. Nevertheless, this achievement is not without disagreement. The New York Times filed a lawsuit against Microsoft and OpenAI, claiming that ChatGPT was trained on its articles without authorization.
Summary of Microsoft’s 2023
Microsoft’s Windows Insider Programme is now taking a break, and new releases are expected to be released in January 2024. A detailed list of features, services, and components that Microsoft has marked as deprecated in 2023 has also been compiled, providing insights into the company’s strategic changes. The Microsoft 365 Roadmap Weekly provided information about new capabilities for Teams, Stream, and Outlook, indicating that Microsoft continues to invest in its productivity suite. Finally, the technology industry was disturbed by a major release of the Grand Theft Auto V source code, which exposed information about the game and other projects by Rockstar.
