== What is Microsoft Copilot? ==
During 2023 Microsoft introduced AI functionality in in many parts of their products and services and started to call these parts "copilots". From a marketing perspective, there are branded products such as Copilot for Microsoft 365, Copilot for Sales and even a product name called Microsoft Copilot. Microsoft Copilot is the new name for Bing Chat/Bing Chat Enterprise, see the announcement: [https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2023/09/21/announcing-microsoft-copilot-your-everyday-ai-companion/ Announcing Microsoft Copilot, your everyday AI companion]. From a concept perspective, copilots have different categories, such as embedded copilots, copilots as add-ons and build your own. These categories are all explained in the video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8Qc9-0mPFE Understanding copilots at Microsoft].
Seeing copilot definitions the words Large Language Models (LLMs) and cognitive tasks are often used. In the article [https://news.microsoft.com/2023/04/04/ai-explained/ AI Explained] the following definition is seen:
<i>A copilot is an application that uses modern AI/LLMs like GPT-4 to assist people with complex (cognitive) tasks.</i>
On the Microsoft Adoption pages the concept is explained as follows:
<i>Microsoft offers a variety of Copilot assistants that can be adopted to enhance user productivity and creativity. Copilot is integrated into various Microsoft platforms and products, providing a more interactive and efficient digital workspace.</i>
== Microsoft Copilot Studio ==
This is where you can build your own copilots. In November 2023, Microsoft [[Power Virtual Agents]] became a part of the Microsoft Copilot Studio.
