What is Copilot?
Copilot explained
Microsoft Copilot is an AI assistant embedded across Microsoft's product suite — Windows 11, Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, Outlook), the Edge browser, and a standalone web interface. It is powered by OpenAI's GPT-4 models and has real-time web search via Bing. Copilot in GitHub assists with code completion and explanation inside the editor.
Korean context
Copilot in Korea
Korea is one of Microsoft 365's largest markets, so Copilot reaches Korean knowledge workers through the software they already pay for. Korean companies using Microsoft Teams can summon Copilot to draft meeting summaries and action items in Korean. Copilot in Edge is particularly popular for Korean students reading English academic papers — it can summarise and translate the page without leaving the browser.
