About this tag
Microsoft Copilot is Microsoft's AI assistant integrated across Microsoft 365, Windows, and enterprise services. Recent discussions cover its enterprise adoption, including Wavestone earning a Copilot Specialist certification for integration and governance, and training initiatives in Australia to build workplace AI skills. Technical developments show Microsoft routing some Copilot prompts in Excel and Outlook through its own MAI models to reduce costs and gain control, rather than relying solely on OpenAI or Anthropic. Copilot also connects with third-party tools like Smartsheet via MCP servers. Windows 11 remains the base for Copilot and agents, with no Windows 12 release in 2026. These threads highlight Copilot's evolution from a feature to a managed service requiring governance, training, and infrastructure decisions.
