We will continue to train our machine learning model in all phases to intelligently deploy new versions of Windows 10 and provide a smooth update experience.

Devices with Windows 10 20H2 they will automatically upgrade to Windows 10 21H2 according to the tweet. Microsoft is using the release to train machine learning as versions of Windows will stop being supported in the coming years. The next version to end support will be version 21H1, which will receive the last updates on December 13, 2022.

Devices running Windows 10 21H1 can also be upgraded to version 21H2, as they will be supported until June 2023.
