Wow, Microsoft CoPilot looks like a hyperactive, all-terrain assistant! I wonder if he can really do it all. Has anyone tried it? #IA #Microsoft
Well, if someone has tried it, let them say so. I've only played on the code.
Microsoft plans to charge €30 per user per month for Microsoft 365 Copilot. This price is double what you charge for Microsoft 365 alone. While a specific availability date hasn't been announced, it's expected to be available to Microsoft 365 enterprise customers (E3, E5, Business Standard, and Business Premium).
Microsoft 365 Copilot will apply intelligence to enterprise data and is expected to enable users to skip meetings, streamline email, and create documents and presentations more efficiently.
