Despite canning the Copilot+ brand, "most people love" its AI assistant, says Microsoft
People still love it.
Microsoft's AI assistant, Copilot, is still going strong despite the company dropping the Copilot+ brand from its laptops. According to Microsoft, people love using Copilot. The company has recently overhauled Copilot, integrating it with Microsoft Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, allowing users to work collaboratively on these apps without having to leave the AI tool.
The revamped Copilot includes several new features, including "Home", which combines Microsoft's AI chat experience with Copilot, and "Code", a tool that lets users build applications and other software using natural-language instructions, powered by technology underlying GitHub Copilot. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced "Autopilot", an always-on AI agent that can handle automated tasks continuously on its own, previously known as "Scout".
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella describes the new Copilot as a "new OS for work". The company plans to make the new Copilot implementation available for public testing in the coming weeks, with 365 Premium and Pro subscribers able to preview it later this year. According to TechSpot, Satya Nadella calls it a new OS.
