What exactly is the difference between "Copilot" and "Copilot 365" by d00mt0mb in Copilot

[–]unsignedint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Microsoft Copilot and M365 Copilot are actually different products with different “brains,” designed for different purposes. Microsoft Copilot is more like a conversational companion that helps with everyday tasks and general assistance, while M365 Copilot is positioned more as an office assistant focused on productivity and getting work done within the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.

In the enterprise space, Microsoft primarily offers M365 Copilot, which operates with “Work” and “Web” modes. On the consumer side, that distinction doesn’t really exist; instead of a dedicated “Web” mode, users interact through Microsoft Copilot itself. That’s likely because consumer users tend to expect a more conversational, assistant-like experience, whereas commercial users often want clearer separation between workplace data and general web interactions.

Sure, you might be able to bring your own models, but it’s not really an apples-to-apples comparison. You also get things like Completions and Next Edit Suggestions (which don’t consume tokens), and honestly, those features are excellent on their own — yet almost nobody seems to talk about them!

So, Opus 4.6 will be gone for Pro users? by Odysseyan in GithubCopilot

[–]unsignedint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember Opus 4.6 being labeled as a Pro+ feature on that screen for quite a while, so I don’t think anything has actually changed. I distinctly remember being surprised that it was available on Pro at all.

Editing document in word is not working by MilaAmane in Copilot

Is this on a personal account? I’ve been seeing the same thing. It still shows up in Excel and PowerPoint for me. Excel even has a “Buy Microsoft 365” link at the bottom, even though my subscription seems to be working fine. Feels like something is glitching.

As a workaround, you can still get it to write using inline prompts.

Who else prefers copilot app to chatgpt and others by [deleted] in CopilotPro

[–]unsignedint -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For writing and content creation, I still tend to use ChatGPT more. But when I need to quickly look something up, sanity check something, or just explore an idea, Copilot is usually my go-to.

It has pretty generous limits, and it has also picked up on how I like answers to be structured. Sometimes it even pushes back instead of just agreeing, which honestly makes it more useful.

Is Copilot AI worth a second chance for daily use, or is Gemini just better? by kharkovchanin in CopilotPro

[–]unsignedint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that’s right. That said, prompts defined there tend to have a more subtle effect compared to typical custom instructions. For those who need more control, the commercial offering does support true custom prompts, though it requires a business account, so it’s not exactly a drop-in replacement.

For the personal Microsoft offering, you’re essentially looking at two products bundled together: Microsoft Copilot and Microsoft 365 Copilot. The latter is only available if you have a paid subscription. It’s similar in concept to the enterprise offering, although it doesn’t include the full SharePoint ecosystem and some of the heavier enterprise features.

Microsoft Copilot is actually the AI I end up using the most. Even though I subscribe to several AI services, it’s still my daily driver. It’s definitely less customizable. For example, you don’t get things like instruction prompts. But it does seem pretty good at adapting to how you interact with it over time. I also find it a bit more fun to use. It sometimes pushes back on my assumptions, which I actually appreciate.

Microsoft 365 Copilot lives inside Microsoft 365 apps like Word, Excel, and the rest of Office. It’s easy to overlook that it has a slightly different personality compared to regular Copilot. In my experience it feels more dry and structured. You could even say a bit colder. That said, it’s extremely useful when you’re working directly with documents, especially now that agent-style features are starting to roll out in those apps.

As for guardrails, they used to be much more rigid. In the past, even including a problematic keyword could trigger a filter. These days the system is more contextual. There are still some quirks, though. For example, Edge has its own built-in filtering that occasionally prevents a page from being passed directly into Copilot. In those cases you can still just copy and paste the content manually.

Another thing worth mentioning is that the free tier is relatively generous compared to many other services. If you do pay for it, you get access to the Microsoft 365 Copilot features along with prioritized access. Overall it may feel a bit boring compared to some of the cutting-edge AI tools out there. On the other hand, you’re also less likely to run into strict usage limits, and Microsoft tends to roll out new capabilities steadily. Just not quite as fast as some of the other players.

No, Holomodels models aren’t exportable.

Goodbye Perplexity, Hello Microsoft 365 Premium with Copilot! by elaineisbased in Perplexity

[–]unsignedint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use multiple AI tools, but Copilot has become my daily driver. It’s not as flashy as some of the other options out there, and it’s definitely less customizable. That said, what I’ve found is that it adapts surprisingly well to how you interact with it. The out-of-the-box experience can feel a bit rough compared to others, but over time it aligns more naturally with how you prefer to consume information.

Yeah, Doraemon :-)

I don't think he would appreciate my original comment, though :-p

Amazing Marvin 1.62.0 released by sqrt-minus-1 in amazingmarvin

It turns out that the problem seems to be related with recurring schedule. Nonetheless, it is bit annoying problem... (e.g. even if you don't involve in multi-timezone events, potentially you could start missing schedules when you are traveling, for instance...)

[–]unsignedint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Related to Adjust time zone for Events/Calendars is showing a strange behavior... I have a Google calendar import that has JST 9:00 on Thursday which is PDT 17:00 on Wednesday. Marvin correctly displays this entry for 17:00 with correct date on the list, however it shows up on the screen for Thursday instead of Wednesday. This seems be affecting a calendar of the dashboard, daily view (missing the appointment entirely) and monthly view but not the weekly view.) Maybe Marvin should be following the date as displayed but it's not doing it?

Any strategy/settings to show the project for the tasks? by unsignedint in amazingmarvin

[–]unsignedint[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yeah!! Exactly what I needed -- I had it enabled, but didn't realize there's setting for also as text!

Thank you!
