Microsoft rebuilds Copilot around Home, Code and Autopilot

Key points

• Copilot now has three parts: Home for chat and Office, Code for plain-language app building, and Autopilot for always-on agents.
• Microsoft removed Copilot from several Windows apps after finding they drew traffic but delivered little value.
• Copilot's Auto mode routes each task to the model it judges best, while users can still choose a specific model.
• Andreou says irreversible agent actions need a human every time, while reversible work can run independently within set boundaries.

Why it matters for marketers: For marketers, the lesson is to measure per-user value over entry-point traffic, and to map irreversible actions before deploying agents.
