Microsoft Copilot – enterprise ready AI

As we shared in our Previous Article, Microsoft has begun to roll out Copilot, with a full rollout coming in the next few months. In the previous article, we shared how Copilot can help unleash your user’s creativity and supercharge their productivity. This article will explore whether Copilot can really change how we work. Is it secure? And how will it develop over time so it doesn’t get overtaken by the next big thing?

Copilot is much more than Chat GPT bolted onto the Microsoft 365 suite. It’s a sophisticated processing and orchestration engine made accessible for all Microsoft 365 users by combining the power of Larger Language Models (LLM), including GTP-4, with Microsoft 365 apps and your business data in the Microsoft Graph.

Grounded in your business data

AI tools can make you more productive if they deliver accurate, relevant, conventional responses. Microsoft 365 Copilot has real-time access to your content and context in the Microsoft Graph. This ensures that it generates answers anchored in your business content — your documents, emails, calendar, chats, meetings, contacts and other business data — and combines them with your working context — the meeting you’re in now, the email exchanges you’ve had on a topic, the chat conversations you had last week — to deliver actionable and relevant responses.

Built on Microsoft 365’s comprehensive approach to security compliance & privacy

As Copilot is integrated into Microsoft 365, it automatically inherits all of your company’s valuable security compliance, privacy policies and processes. Two-factor authentication, compliance boundaries, privacy protections, and more make Copilot your trusted AI solution.

Architected to protect tenant, group & individual data

We know data leakage is a concern for customers. Copilot LLMs are not trained on your tenant data or your prompts. Our time-tested permission model within your tenant ensures that data won’t leak across user groups. On an individual level, Copilot presents only data you can access using the same technology we’ve used for years to secure customer data.

Integrated into the apps millions use every day

Microsoft 365 Copilot is integrated into the productivity apps millions of people use and rely on every day for work and life — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams and more. This delivers an intuitive and consistent user experience, so whatever you’re working on, you’ll always be able to harness the power of Copilot with a simple prompt.

Designed to learn new skills

Microsoft 365 Copilot’s foundational skills are a game-changer for productivity, but it doesn’t stop there. Copilot is designed to develop new skills to help users perform even more sophisticated tasks and queries, making you even more productive.

In the months ahead, Microsoft will bring Copilot to all their productivity apps—Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, Viva, Power Platform, and more.
