Microsoft plans to integrate its Copilot AI system into OneDrive in December for all Microsoft 365 Copilot license holders. Copilot will provide a daily digest of files, highlighting important changes and summarizing new comments. The new OneDrive experience will also be available in the files section of Microsoft Teams and the file navigation part of Outlook. Most of the interface changes are currently available on onedrive.com, with more updates expected in early 2024.
Key takeaways:
- Microsoft is launching the third generation of its OneDrive cloud storage, featuring AI-powered Copilot system, a Fluent design refresh, and improvements to business document sharing and usage.
