Microsoft’s head of Windows, Pavan Davuluri, has shared new details about how AI will change the way we use our computers, hinting at a future where the operating system is more aware, more natural to interact with, and more deeply connected to what’s on your screen. 

Speaking in a newly published video interview on the Windows IT Pro YouTube channel, Davuluri said he believes computing will become “more ambient, more pervasive, continue to span form factors, and certainly become more multi-modal in the arc of time.” 

He also spoke about the growing role of voice, suggesting it will take its place alongside the mouse and keyboard as a primary way of controlling a PC.

In the interview, Davuluri explained that Windows will evolve into a platform that can understand the context of what you’re doing at any moment. 

“The concept that your computer can actually look at your screen and is context-aware is going to become an important modality for us going forward,” he said. 

This means your PC won’t just wait for commands, it will be able to respond to what’s already happening on your screen, offering relevant actions or information without you having to explain everything from scratch.
