The AI Coffee Podcast

In this episode, I, Alejandro Pérez Pérez, take a critical look at Microsoft Copilot, the AI-driven assistant that promises to streamline tasks across Microsoft 365 apps. Copilot has the potential to transform productivity – but only if users understand how to make the most of it. Without proper training, Copilot’s functionality may go underutilized or misused, leading to frustrations instead of benefits. I’ll explain why training is the key to unlocking Copilot’s real value, with practical insights on how companies can maximize their investment in this AI tool.
