In essence Microsoft 365 Copilot chat is free to all Microsoft 365 users and provides the same AI across just the web but with commercial data protection. You can extend those capabilities by adding metered billing if desired before stepping up to the full paid version of Microsoft 365 Copilot.
I also have Microsoft Cloud news and updates for you as well as part of this episode so tune in.

Lots of Ai and security news since the last episode. We are also on the cusp of Microsoft Build so we expect even more shortly. Although I'm a tad under the weather (apologies for sounding a bit nasal) but I felt I needed to get this episode out before the deluge of information we expect shortly from build. I think the OpenAI announcements along with those from Google are the most worthy to pay attention to here but I'm sure there should be something to interest everyone here. Listen on and enjoy!
