Microsoft is consolidating GitHub Copilot, Copilot chat, Copilot Cowork and Autopilot into one super app. The idea is good. The integration is where it usually falls apart.
Perplexity Computer now works inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. No tab switching, no copy-pasting. Hands-on with the M365 integration.
The redesigned adoption hub organises content around three roles: AI Business User, AI Champion, AI Leader. Practical prompts and examples instead of generic guidance.
PowerPoint's new Copilot skill, Visualize this slide, converts walls of text into designed slides. Useful, but still only part of what makes a presentation work.
A local FastAPI proxy makes Microsoft 365 Copilot available as a model provider for any AI agent or CLI tool that already supports the OpenAI chat completions format.
Microsoft is building a unified Copilot Design System. The DAB backlash and the Throw and Catch pattern show the problem it is actually trying to solve.
