Get gift ideas with AI
No matter how close you are to your friends and loved ones, it can still be difficult to buy gifts for them. Will they appreciate the present? Do they have something similar already? And if you want to think outside of the box, where do you start finding gift ideas?
Luckily, Microsoft Edge has AI-powered technology to recommend ideas for gift giving. This can be especially handy if you’re buying for a child, making new connections, or are shopping on a budget. With Copilot in the Microsoft Edge sidebar, simply ask for gift recommendations like you’re speaking to a friend, and you’ll get answers in seconds.
Ask Copilot questions with natural speech
Copilot in the Edge sidebar takes your search requests with the same language as natural speech, analyzing and parsing it to find resources from real-world sources, then presenting it to you in a concise and easy-to-understand format.
To get started, open Microsoft Edge and follow these steps:
- Select the Copilot icon in the upper-right corner of the browser.
- You’ll see three options: Chat, Compose, and Insights.
- Select Chat. In the Ask me anything. . . search box, enter a query for gift idea recommendations.
Personalize your gift ideas to dazzle your loved ones
