Microsoft slaps new coat of paint on Copilot, buries annoying button

Microsoft redesigned its Copilot app for Microsoft 365, introducing a faster interface, improved response times for complex prompts, and a task-aware workspace for prompts. The update addresses user complaints about a disruptive floating button, offering an option to move it to the ribbon. Copilot usage increased by 27-43% across Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook following the changes.
