Ep 8 - Looking ahead to 2024

In a slight change of schedule, Zoe and Kevin decided to talk about the year ahead and some thoughts as to the big topics. There was a little news to cover as well, especially for all those who love buttons.

We also asked Copilot to do a summary of the show so here's that version!

In this episode of Copilot Connection, Kevin and Zoe discuss the latest news and trends in the world of Copilot and AI for 2024. They share their thoughts on the new Copilot apps for iOS and Android, the AI-powered Windows PCs with a Copilot button, and the emerging hardware devices that use Open AI models. They also talk about some of the challenges and opportunities that AI brings, such as the copyright issues, the data quality and governance, and the extensibility and customization of Copilot solutions. They give some examples of custom Copilots that they have built or seen, and how they can help users get more value from their data and documents. They invite the listeners to share their feedback and suggestions for future episodes, and to follow the Copilot Connection on social media and podcast platforms.
