The European Commission on Tuesday told Microsoft that it suspects the company may have violated anti-trust law by bundling its Teams messenger software with the Microsoft Office suite. As the European Union's anti-trust enforcer, the commission objects to bundling when it believes a company is exploiting its dominance in one market to gain an advantage in another. In this case, Microsoft is dominant in the market for what the commission calls "productivity software," meaning word processors like Microsoft Word and spreadsheet tools like Excel. But the commission is arguing that Teams competes...

Following fierce criticism, Microsoft is now postponing the launch of a new Windows search feature that was supposed to record what was on a user's screen every few seconds. The so-called Recall feature was originally due to be available on June 18 on upcoming PCs, however Microsoft has now announced it will be tested at a later date on a smaller scale in the Windows Insider programme. Microsoft says Recall makes it easier to find information on a PC, since AI-powered software can analyse what is seen on the screenshots Windows saves and create a directory of what a user has been doing on thei...

Microsoft has paused the rollout of its new artificial intelligence feature "Recall," the tech giant said on Thursday after security concerns were raised. Recall periodically takes snapshots of a PC user's screen, which are then encrypted and stored and can be analyzed by AI to search for past information.

"My name is Cathal, but phones generally try to call me Cathedral or Catholic," says Cathal Wogan. He's not alone in sharing his frustration at how spell-checkers and autocorrect try to "fix" his name. Names like Maeva, Bukayo, Caelan, Liyana and Ayda are often seen with a red line under them, suggesting they need correcting. Meanwhile, the likes of Anne, Nigel, William and Susan are seen as accepted spellings, according to a new awareness campaign in the UK. The problem doesn't stop with squiggly red lines still appearing under many people's names, say campaigners, who argue that the social a...

Berlin (dpa) — You copy and paste some text from another program into Microsoft Word, and suddenly the colour, font, size and other formattings of your text are all wrong. Whole minutes are wasted fixing it! Now, thanks to a new feature delivered by Microsoft at last, this decade-old headache should be a thing of the past as the program switches to a new default setting - "Merge Formatting." That means that any meaningful formatting from the original content (for example bold or underlined text, and list and table structure) will be kept, but it will also match the formatting of the destinatio...

The European Commission on Friday gave Microsoft a legally binding deadline of May 27 to supply documents concerning the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in its Bing search engine. The order concerns two features: "Copilot in Bing," a multipurpose system that can create text and images based on prompts from the user, and "Image Creator by Designer," an image generator. The commission says it suspects AI-generated false information - known as "hallucinations" - from these systems, as well as AI-generated "deepfakes" and voter manipulation, may violate the European Union's Digital ...
