    Microsoft MVP News, Copilot Costs, Scout Automations and AI Security

    In this episode of Two Surfdudes and AI, Paul and Vincent celebrate Vincent becoming a Microsoft MVP for Microsoft 365 Copilot. They discuss what changed now that Cowork has moved to pay-as-you-go, why companies are rethinking AI costs, and when Copilot, Cowork, Scout, scheduled prompts, workflows or agents make the most sense. The conversation also covers Copilot skills in PowerPoint and Excel, brand kits, dashboards, Microsoft Scout automations, token pricing, AI enablement, and the security risks of building with new npm packages. And as always, they end with surf: heatwaves, campervan life, surfing with kids, summer waves and a new wave pool in Belgium.

    Most Copilot users still type prompts and wait. Cowork is where you describe an outcome, walk away, and come back to finished work. In this episode of 2 Surfdudes and AI, Vincent Claeys and Paul Keijzers unpack Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork and Skills, the part of Copilot most teams are still sleeping on. What we cover: • The evolution from Copilot Chat to Microsoft 365 Copilot to Cowork • The 4 steps to enable Cowork: Anthropic subprocessor, Frontier Mode, enabling the agent, and pinning it for users • What a skill really is, a Standard Operating Procedure your Copilot follows every time • Skill Factory, the fastest way to build and merge your own skills • Governance, where skills live in OneDrive, the risk of downloaded skills, and why a SharePoint list of approved skills is a smart starting point • Skills vs agents, when to choose which • A skill that scans your Outlook, Teams, and Cowork sessions every Monday and proposes new skills to build Also in this episode: Microsoft Build on June 2 and 3, the end of the Microsoft fiscal on July 1, and why pricing for Cowork is the conversation nobody is having out loud yet.

We close on Notebooks, mind maps, audio recaps, and what happens when you run four AI tasks at the same time.For IT pros, admins, MVPs and anyone responsible for Microsoft 365 governance.More on https://kbworks.eu/

    We Tried AI. Here's What Actually Happened.

    You keep hearing that AI will change the way you work. But what does that actually mean for you on a normal Tuesday morning? In this first episode of 2 Surf Dudes Talking AI, Paul Keijzers and Vincent Claeys — two consultants who work with Microsoft 365 and AI every day — sit down for a real conversation about what using AI actually looks like. Not in a presentation. Not in a demo. In real life, with real people who just want to get their work done. They talk about what surprises people when they first try AI tools, where it genuinely helps, where it falls flat, and why the gap between the promise and the reality is where the most interesting things happen. No jargon. No sales pitch. Just two guys being honest about something that is changing the way all of us work. New episodes drop regularly. Subscribe so you do not miss the next one.
