    011 | Microsoft 365 Copilot: How it Works & Extensibility Overview

    In this episode, we dive deep into Microsoft 365 Copilot - the enterprise-grade AI assistant built specifically for business environments. We'll explain how it differs from consumer AI like ChatGPT, discuss its licensing options (from the $30/user/month model to consumption-based alternatives), and clarify common misconceptions. We'll also demystify the relationship between AI assistants and the large language models powering them. You'll learn how Microsoft 365 Copilot leverages GPT-4o but enhances it with proprietary orchestration, enterprise-grade security, and seamless integration with your Microsoft 365 data and workflows. Finally, we'll explore the extensibility options that allow Copilot customers to create custom agents tailored to specific business scenarios.๐Ÿ”— LINKS News: ๐Ÿ”— Microsoft Releases Urgent Patch for SharePoint RCE Flaw Exploited in Ongoing Cyber Attacks ๐Ÿ”— MSRC: Customer guidance for SharePoint vulnerability CVE-2025-53770 Episode: ๐Ÿ”— How Microsoft 365 Copilot Works: Understanding the Tech Stack Behind the Magic Picks: ๐Ÿ”— Julie: iD Tech | Summer Tech Camps & Online Programs for Kids & Teens๐Ÿ”— Andrew: NSLC: Summer Pre-College Career Exploration Programs for Students & Claude Code (by Anthropic) ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ PODCAST๐Ÿ”— https://codedeploygo.live, LinkedIn, Bluesky ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ HOSTSJulie TurnerAndrew Connell: LinkedIn, YouTube, Bluesky, Newsletter SPONSORS Sympraxis (by Julie Turner) ๐Ÿ”— Website ๐Ÿ”— Ask Sympraxis ๐Ÿ”— YouTube Voitanos (by Andrew Connell) ๐Ÿ”— Website ๐Ÿ”— LinkedIn ๐Ÿ”— Bluesky Music Credit: Ken Bagley (00:00) - Introduction (12:25) - News update (18:03) - Microsoft 365 Copilot: How it Works & Extensibility Overview (01:03:52) - AC's & Julie's Picks
