What is Copilot

Think of it as an assistant that understands what you’re doing and gives you suggestions, answers, or even does tasks for you—so you can work faster and easier. It’s not replacing you; it’s there to support you, like a co-pilot in an airplane who helps the main pilot navigate and manage things.

To be more specific or technical Copilot is a conversational, AI-powered assistant that uses generative AI to help boost productivity and streamline workflows.

It provides contextual assistance, automates routine tasks, and analyses data so you can focus on more important work. Think of it as a smart partner that understands your needs and helps you get things done faster.
