Microsoft taught personal assistant Cortana new skills in a new preview version of its operating system. Version 19613 of Windows 10, now available to members of the Windows Insiders program, brought some improvements that make the service more complete.
The main innovation in the PC application is to incorporate “Bing Answers” and “Assistant Conversations” in Cortana in a series of regions, allowing you to answer a series of new questions. This includes questions like “How’s the weather?” and “What can you do?”, plus commands like “Convert one inch to centimeters.”
Previously, this was only available in the United States, but now it has reached several other regions, including Brazilian Portuguese. Australia, Canada, France, India and Mexico, among other countries, also received the appeal.
Strong competition
This new feature was added in version 2.2004.1706.0 in Cortana, and could mean another step in the reformulation of the platform, which should be simpler in future versions of the operating system.
It’s worth remembering that these features are already available from Cortana’s competitors, such as Apple’s Siri, and Google Assistant, on Android. Windows 19 build 19613 still features a number of bug fixes and should be released as an official update soon.
