What actually is Copilot+? Is that just the code name of Windows "12", i.e. everyone has to use it eventually? Or is that some special fork version that nobody is going to use anyway? All these articles are rather vague.

Copilot is their AI solution they have integrated into bing. I'm pretty sure Copilot+ is that integrated into windows.

I've been trying to use copilot, it is better then free chatgpt but still kind of sucks. It does however seem to improve the performance of our colleagues from India.

A Copilot+ PC is an ARM Snapdragon-based Windows PC with a dedicated AI processing chip the same way you have dedicated graphics chips. While it's possible to emulate the architecture these PCs use in order to test the Recall feature, there's no talk (yet) of the same screenlogger being planned for regular x86 PCs.
