From ExtremeTech: It's been widely reported that Microsoft plans to launch a new version of Windows in 2024. Microsoft's next OS is expected to be the company's first effort to tie in all its advancements in generative AI from the get-go, so it'll arrive with AI everywhere instead of being kind of tacked on like it is in the current version of Windows. The launch of this OS will coincide with the arrival of AI PCs to the marketplace, making 2024 the year when AI takes over our computers, for better or worse.
At this point, it's unclear if the next version of Windows will be getting the number 12 or just be called 24H2 in keeping with the naming scheme of recent Windows updates. According to a new report from Windows Central, it'll be a major update for the OS either way and will be an entirely new version of the Windows platform. This huge update will essentially transform the user experience by focusing on AI. The first wave of AI PCs is expected to arrive in June with this new version of Windows pre-loaded, with the public release coming in September for those who want to upgrade.
