Project Aion is Microsoft's experimental AI operating system

A video has been leaked in BetaWiki's Discord server, which was recorded sometime in 2024, suggesting that Microsoft has explored a dedicated AI OS.

Project Aion uses Win3 and the Edge browser, and the UI is centered on Copilot. There is a Copilot-based start menu, and an input box where you can search files, launch apps and browse the web.

The taskbar has a "Spaces" feature which groups open apps together. Aion is built around the web and does not run native Windows apps. There's probably also a version of Aion running on top of Windows 11, which supports native Windows apps.
