About this tag
The pilot tag on WindowsForum.com covers controlled, small-scale deployments of generative AI and Microsoft Copilot in enterprise and government settings. Discussions include the U.S. House of Representatives issuing 6,000 Copilot licenses for a year-long pilot, Microsoft's OneGov program offering free Copilot trials to federal agencies, and a five-step playbook for safe generative AI pilots in law. Other threads explore turning Word documents into PowerPoint slides with Copilot and the role of an AI productivity director in turning pilot projects into measurable value. The tag also includes off-topic posts about futuristic vehicles and steampunk imagery.
