About this tag
The autopilot agents tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about Microsoft's autonomous agent technology, particularly Microsoft Scout, the first Autopilot agent for Microsoft 365. Scout is an always-on, OpenClaw-based assistant that operates across Teams, Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint, desktop, and browser, governed by Entra identity. This represents a shift from Copilot as a chat interface to background agents that observe work and act proactively. Topics include the implications of autonomous agents for enterprise IT, security, and user control, as well as comparisons to previous Microsoft AI tools. The tag reflects growing interest in governed, proactive AI assistants within the Microsoft ecosystem.
