Microsoft announced the new Copilot, with exec Jacob Andreou framing it around a simple thesis: intelligence is no longer the bottleneck, diffusion is. Home unifies Chat and Cowork with a proactive Today view across Outlook, Teams, meetings and tasks. Word, Excel and PowerPoint come fully into Copilot for simultaneous AI editing and human collaboration. Code lets users describe apps or workflows in plain English, sandboxed locally or in the tenant cloud. Bing/Web IQ grounds it all via RAG, per search lead Jordi Rib1.
