    Nvidia’s new GPU driver is ready for Black Ops 6 and more.

    Nvidia has released a new Game Ready driver (566.03) that includes support for Alan Wake II: The Lake House, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Red Dead Redemption, and more. The 566.03 release also includes support for 32 new G-Sync compatible monitors. If you use Bluestacks or Corsair iCUE equipment, hold off on this driver as there’s a known high CPU usage issue.

    Microsoft’s new Copilot AI agents arrive next month.

    A public preview of Microsoft’s new autonomous AI agents will be available in Copilot Studio next month. Microsoft is also adding 10 new autonomous agents in Dynamics 365, as the company looks to AI agents to let businesses create virtual employees that automate tasks. I’m sure we’ll hear more about Copilot agents and features at Microsoft Ignite in November, too.
