The Verge: Microsoft is putting a lot of emphasis on its Cortana digital assistant for its next Windows 10 update. While the software maker is still experimenting with having Cortana float around Windows 10, Microsoft is now starting to test some additional features publicly. Starting today, Windows Insiders will get access to a new commitment option in Cortana for Windows 10.
Microsoft silenced Cortana in Windows 11, but you can get the digital assistant back. Here's how.
Contractors are expected to work on around 200 pieces of data an hour for Microsoft's Cortana, and make as little as $12 an hour.
The Verge: Cortana started off life as a digital assistant for Windows Phone, before making its way to Windows 10, iOS, and Android. With Windows Phone dead and very few people using Cortana on a PC, Microsoft has made the difficult decision to give up competing with Alexa and Google Assistant. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella revealed earlier this year that the company no longer sees Cortana as a competitor to those other digital assistants, and that it’s embracing the idea of having rivals on its platform. We’re now starting to see how that will work, and what it means for the future of Cortana.
Considering Google does the same thing, but this is a feature that can actually help you as opposed to directly marketing to you based on your emails.
That's pretty cool I guess. It says it is available for Windows 10 users as of today, but what about Windows 8 users? Any word on them?
I have to upgrade my Windows to version 10 so I can use this feature for sure.
