Microsoft launches a rather controversial icon for its Copilot app.
If you use a computer with a low resolution, you are unlikely to be able to distinguish the new Microsoft Copilot application icon, as it is quite confusing.
Users with low-resolution computers are facing difficulties with the new Microsoft Copilot application icon. This icon, according to reports, includes text that is virtually unreadable on certain screens. Anchored in the taskbar, the logo's details are rendered with such pixel density that it can lead to confusion about its true meaning. For example, those with a Surface Laptop Go, which has a low-resolution screen, might not recognize that the icon says "M365," confusing it with combinations of letters like "MJEG" or "M366."
It is important to note that Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot are different services. While the former allows the use of applications like Excel and Word, Copilot is essentially a chat service. Despite Microsoft's efforts to encourage the use of Copilot, the similarity between both icons does not benefit users, causing confusion. Although this design flaw does not affect the functionality of the applications, it may give the impression that little attention has been paid to detail. So far, the company has not issued any comments on this matter, although changes are expected to differentiate the icons in the future.
In another realm, Microsoft has temporarily halted the release of a significant update for Windows 11, known as 24H2. This suspension is due to reported issues from users experiencing crashes and failures while playing specific titles from Ubisoft, such as Assassin's Creed and Star Wars. The most common complaints include black screens and freezes, which have generated frustration among players who cannot focus on their games. One user shared their experience online, mentioning that despite owning a new high-performance laptop, they cannot play without experiencing crashes.
The situation reflects discontent, as many users attribute the failures to system errors, such as the issue with "NTDLL.dll,” which prevents enjoying games. Meanwhile, in the field of artificial intelligence, despite the significant interest it has generated over the year, it seems that the same tech industry does not share as much enthusiasm, according to a recent study. It is also anticipated that Microsoft will introduce new AI features in applications like Outlook, Teams, and PowerPoint, highlighting a continuous effort to integrate this technology into its ecosystem.
