CopilotThe basics
Assistant
An AI helper built into software you already use, such as email or spreadsheets: it drafts and suggests, and you decide. Microsoft calls its version Copilot.
In the workshop
A helper at your elbow who hands you the right chisel and holds the other end of the board, but leaves the cutting to you.
In your business
In Outlook, the assistant sums up a long email thread about a delayed kitchen fitting and drafts a reply for you to check.
