Tbh these are great features but I don't see how they need an AI (Artificial Intelligence) like Cortana.
any browser can implement these features without an AI.
Microsoft needs to look up to Google Assistance and how smart it is in Android, then make Cortana like that.
Opera, Yandex etc all are based on Chromium and they already have some of these features (translations, sidebar view etc) without Cortana AI.
maybe Microsoft's definition of AI is different than that of the rest of the world?

Well, personally, I like me use Cortana. Although it is known that it is not on a par with the other AI, I get used to the use that I have with this one; to me, it shows me the results I want, I have no problems with that. Although it would be a good option to have different AI in the browser.
