In a blog post, Microsoft has announced changes to Copilot that the company says will “connect the tools people rely on with the next generation of capabilities they’ll need to build, customise, and scale AI across work”.

The Copilot app has now been rebuilt around three new capabilities. These are:
- Home: This functions like a dashboard, so when you open Copilot, you’ll see what you were doing, recommendations based on this as to what to do next, and suggestions on what Copilot can help with. You still get access to your Office apps and can issue commands to them via Home.
- Code: Powered by the same underlying technology as GitHub Copilot, Code runs in a sandboxed environment and can create small tasks through natural language requests. “Describe an app, tracker, dashboard, automation or workflow in natural language, and Copilot chooses an approach and builds it,” it says in the blog post.
- Autopilot: This is where your AI Agents are. Previously called Scout, it is able to perform tasks and work for you. Create a goal, give it a name and role, and it will go to work whether it’s scheduling a meeting, reviewing plans or performance, and even doing follow-up on its own.
