The narrator in the leaked video says "Aion is an example of a web-based agent OS that natively builds Copilot into the core of the shell." Speaking of which, while the general shell user interface (UI) of Aion looks quite similar to Windows 11, there are some major differences. The most noticeable one perhaps is that the Start button is replaced by the Copilot key.

Copying ChromeOS :cool:
 
Leaked Video Reveals Microsoft Project Aion, an Internal Prototype OS Built Around Copilot
Microsoft has developed an internal prototype of a web-based operating system centered around Copilot, where the AI assistant replaces the Start menu, taskbar, and traditional desktop shell, according to a leaked video reported by Windows Central.

The project, called Aion, was built on a codebase named "Win3" and used the Edge browser as its shell. The video first appeared on BetaWiki's Discord server and is thought to be around two years old.

Sources verified the clip's authenticity to Windows Central. Microsoft has not commented on whether Aion was an internal hacking experiment or a product proposal, and the current status of the project is not known.
