Don't worry, the title is pretty misleading actually. The AI won't be "inside" Minecraft at all. In the demo, the player is "sharing their screen" with Copilot from the desktop and It's analyzing what's being shown on it, which just so happens to be a Minecraft window. It's working purely off the same visuals you're getting, there's no extra integration happening behind the scenes and Mojang hasn't added any Copilot code into Minecraft.

The "impressive" part of the demo (and what they explained on stage) is that it doesn't need to be integrated into the game to figure out what's happening on screen, so this should be possible in any game played on Windows. If you're on Linux, you'll never see it.
