A few days ago, Microsoft released a new video interview with the head of the Windows division, Pavan Davuluri, who talked about how artificial intelligence will change the way users interact with computers, shifting the focus from traditional commands to understanding intent.

He expects computing to become more user-friendly, more pervasive, continue to embrace different form factors, and certainly become more multimodal over time. Diversity of capabilities is the next area where voice becoming more and more important. Essentially, the concept of your computer being able to actually see your screen and understand the context is going to be an important modality for Microsoft in the future.
He said that you will be able to talk to your computer while you write, draw, or interact with another person. The computer must semantically understand your intention to interact with it.
The idea is consistent with recent statements from other Microsoft executives. In the future, voice control will become a primary input method, along with the mouse and keyboard, allowing users to issue natural language commands while working.
In addition, Pavan Davuluri hinted in an interview that in a few years the Windows interface may change beyond recognition, and this will be directly related to "agent AI". The operating system is becoming more agent-based and multimodal. That's an area of huge investment and change for Microsoft. To realize these ambitious plans, the company will actively use cloud technologies to ensure that complex AI functions work seamlessly.
