I didn’t mean to imply that Copilot is stateless when I said that the window shouldn’t be persistent. I don’t really disagree with anything you’re saying though, I’m just guessing that Microsoft expects/hopes that Copilot will soon be as integrated into most everyday computing workflows as the Start menu, rather than a full web browser. Probably wishful thinking, but only time will tell.
Also, you’re kind of advocating for a Bing button more so than a web browser button. Don’t give Microsoft any ideas :P
The windows key is a Bing button. You press it and type things to search but Windows gives you Bing results along with local apps that match what you type.
To increase Bing hit results they even automatically show a list of "trending searches" that have nothing to do with your search or any possible search history.
I just hit the Windows button to see what happens and got "Kelly Clarkson weight loss" "Tyreek hill house fire" and "Caitlin Clark" in trending searches. I don't even know who they are.
