Microsoft has released a redesigned Copilot app that merges chat, coding tools, and AI agents into three tabs: Home, Code, and Autopilot. Home combines Copilot Chat and Cowork with a new personalized dashboard called Today, while Code lets users build apps and automations powered by GitHub Copilot's technology. Microsoft also renamed its Scout personal assistant, first shown at Build, to Autopilot, now framed as a cloud-based 'digital teammate' that can keep working autonomously.
