Microsoft Copilot Gets Coding, Editing, Agent Features

Microsoft has launched a major overhaul of Copilot, its AI assistant for Microsoft 365, introducing three new interface sections: Code, Chat, and Autopilot. Code lets nontechnical workers build simple apps using prompts, supported by a new Copilot Managed Runtime service for cloud deployment. Chat integrates with Office apps for document creation and editing, while Autopilot enables no-code AI agent building. The update also expands Microsoft IQ, which now pulls business data from Dynamics 365 and Power Platform. Future additions include a Today section for task prioritization and a feature to eliminate manual switching between Chat and Code modes.
