More AI - whether you like it or not

The Microsoft Mail program is being “enhanced” with AI, meaning that the current support provided by Meeting Insights will be discontinued in September, and Copilot will take over starting in August. Of course, Microsoft has also kept its bottom line in mind and is making Copilot available only to users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.

This means that AI will “assist” us even when writing and reading emails in the future and will be aware of our every action. Of course, we have to admit that Meeting Insights may have been quite the spy, too, given that it displayed details and relevant emails and files related to an upcoming calendar entry.
Microsoft Copilot will be integrated directly into the Outlook editor in the future and will be able to “assist” us both in creating new drafts and in searching for existing messages.
