For those AI enthusiasts worried that there are too many Microsoft Copilots to keep up with, we have (or rather, Microsoft) some good news for you:Windows Copilotwill become the hub for all Microsoft Copilots out there, including Copilot for Microsoft 365.
Spotted byTom Arbuthnot, the integration is set to be generally available on February 5th, 2024, allowing organizations to access the Copilot for Microsoft 356 capabilities directly from the Windows Copilot.
Copilot for Microsoft 365 capabilities are coming to Windows desktop. Organizations will be able to experience Copilot integrated in the Windows desktop – bringing Graph-grounded chat capabilities to Copilot in Windows for users with a Copilot for Microsoft 365 license.
Copilot in Microsoft 365has been around for a while now, and paying for a subscription means you have access to Copilot within the Microsoft 365 apps, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and so on.
However, even then it seemed that there were too many Copilots to catch up with, and while they are integrated within the platform, meaning Excel Copilot will know what you did with Word Copilot, the simple fact that there were Copilots for each platform was confusing.
The confusion was even higher when Microsoft decidedto rename Bing Chat to Copilot, and now Microsoft Edge no longer has Bing Chat, but Copilot, as the default AI tool.
However, the intention to have every Microsoft Copilot readily available within Windows Copilot is more than welcome. In many instances, it is necessary, as it will greatly streamline workflow, reduce time wasted opening up each Copilot, and so on.
Microsoft is releasing it to have a centralized Copilot experience within Windows devices, and assuming organizations work on Windows devices, the option to integrate Microsoft Copilot into Windows Copilot is not mandatory.
On the contrary, Microsoft is keeping it optional, and organizations that are not prepared to use Windows Copilot can turn the option down with the Turn off Windows Copilot policy.
On the other hand, those organizations that want to have a centralized Copilot experience will need to enable Windows Copilot on their Windows desktops.
