Microsoft is getting ready to use AI to automate the boring bits of jobs. New Copilot AI agents will work like virtual employees to automate tasks.
Microsoft will soon allow businesses and developers to build AI-powered Copilots that can work like virtual employees and perform tasks automatically. Instead of Copilot sitting idle waiting for queries, it will be able to do things like monitor email inboxes and automate a series of tasks or data entry that employees normally have to do manually.
” Microsoft’s argument that it only wants to reduce the boring bits of your job sounds idealistic for now, but with the constant fight for AI dominance between tech companies, it feels like we’re increasingly on the verge of more than basic automation. Lamanna believes human judgment and collaboration are still important parts of getting work done and that not everything will be suitable for automation.
