Windows 11's Copilot AI is gaining a handy new "PC Insights" feature that analyzes your system's performance.
It can check CPU, RAM, GPU usage, storage space, battery health, USB devices, network status, BIOS version, and more—with your permission—to answer simple questions like "What's slowing my PC?" or "Do I have room for a big game?"
This makes it easier for beginners to avoid digging through Task Manager.
However, irony hits hard—Copilot itself runs as a web app using nearly 1GB of RAM even when idle, appearing as a full browser in Task Manager!!!
Microsoft should optimize its own tools before letting them "fix" yours.
