Starting point is 00:00:00 This is the Everyday AI Show, the Everyday Podcast where we simplify AI and bring its power to your fingertips. Listen daily for practical advice to boost your career, business, and everyday life. Meet Firefly AI Assistant, now live and Adobe Firefly, the All In One Creative AI Studio. Just describe what you want to create and the assistant handles the rest, orchestrating multi-step workflows across Photoshop, Premiere Express, and more in one conversational interface. You direct the outcome. The assistant accelerates execution. When it comes to agentic AI, I know that a lot of the buzz right now is around open claw,
Starting point is 00:00:52 clawed co-work, and even codex in its new subagents. But there's a pretty big player in the game that low-key put out a very useful product. It's free. It works. And it's really, really good. And maybe it's because of the name that it's not getting a lot of attention because it can do a lot more than tasks. What am I talking about? It's Microsoft co-pilot tasks.
Starting point is 00:01:23 It's a new, what I think, underrated agenic feature from Microsoft that could maybe even shake up this whole co-working agentic landscape if they actually continue to develop this thing and maybe eventually, roll it out to more users. So let's get straight into it and talk about the big picture here. So copilot tasks lets you describe a goal in natural language and then have co-pilots go plan and execute the steps to complete it. Right now, unfortunately, it's only available on Microsoft copilot online, not the Microsoft 365 co-pilot that most enterprise companies use. So it's available on the online version.
Starting point is 00:02:11 not the desktop version, but it is free. It's easy to use. And I would say right now, it's a simpler alternative to a lot of the very popular and trending AI product categories like Claude Co-work, Perplexity Computer, and even OpenClaw. So stick with me for today's putting AI to work on Wednesday's show. And here's what we're going to go over and what you're going to leave with. I'm going to show you how to use co-pilot tasks and get your first task up and running in
Starting point is 00:02:40 minutes. I'm going to walk you through the key features that I think Microsoft is really actually underselling. And in the end, I'm going to show you three reasons why I think everyone should be using co-pilot tasks. All right. You ready to put AI to work this Wednesday? Me too. Let's jump in. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:02:58 If you're new here, my name's Jordan. And this is Everyday AI. It's an unedited, unscripted daily live stream podcast and free daily newsletter, helping everyday business leaders like you and me, not just keep up with all that's happening. the world of AI because there's way too much, but I help you understand what actually matters and how you can put it to use to grow your company and your career. So starts here, but for the cheat code, that's our website, your everyday AI.com. There you can go sign up for the free daily newsletter.
Starting point is 00:03:26 We're going to be recapping today's show and all of the other AI developments in our newsletter that you need to know to stay ahead. All right. I don't know why no one's talking about Microsoft co-pilot tasks. So we're going to go hands on with the power. powerful AI platform that I don't think anyone's really talking about. I mean, literally, sometimes before I do a show, I'll just see, you know, who's talking about this on, you know, YouTube or LinkedIn or just on the internet at large.
Starting point is 00:03:55 And there's like nothing out there, which I don't understand. This is like one of the largest companies in the world. And this is their first free agentic product that anyone can go use yet no one's using it. I think maybe it's because they originally rolled it out to a wait list. And then they open it up to everyone on the wait list. But I think pretty much anyone can go up and sign up for a free account right now. So I don't know how long this is going to be free. I don't know if this was rolled out as a beta.
Starting point is 00:04:27 So go check it out yourself. I got access pretty quickly. So let's start live. We're going to do this one a little different. All right. So live stream audience, help me out. Let me know if you can see my screen. here. So we are now in the just Microsoft co-pilot online. So I'm going to get a
Starting point is 00:04:47 task here started. And I'm going to read for our podcast audience what's going on. So these Wednesday shows, right, once a week, we go hands-on in in-depth with one AI product release or feature. And I usually have you guys vote for it. So overwhelmingly in our newsletter today, you guys wanted to know more about co-pilot tasks. So here's what we're going to start. We're let this thing work and I'm going to check in on it as we go. And I have some other tasks that have already been completed and we're going to take a live look. But if you are listening on the podcast and you want to see the visual side of this, I'm going to
Starting point is 00:05:20 try my best to describe it. But you can always go to our website, Your EverydayAI.com. And we have the video versions there that you can go watch. So here's the kind of prompt that I'm working. I'm also going to give you a little secret. Something I've been working on. All right. So in this prompt, I'm saying I'm working on a product.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Research for an app on building. Please research and run a competitive analysis on Mac Whisper, Whisper Flow, Cast Magic, and Tube on AI. Please include a comprehensive overview of these platforms, comparative and or cumulative looks at Google Trends, search volume, total reviews and average score on popular third-party sites, a deep dive on their respective ICPs, unique features and feature overlaps, as well as, I doubled that one, unique features on each product. Make sure to include comparisons and up-to-date info from March 2026.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Also, make sure to fill the gaps with anything I may be missing. Take your time, then put all this information together in a presentation. All right. Just what I said right there, I can assume, I want you first before we go any further. So I'm going to give you some examples of what I'm personally using this for, right? I always get like two crowds of people, people shouting to be like, Jordan, tell me how you use AI all the time. And I'm like, okay, here you go. And then I also have other people that are like, wait,
Starting point is 00:06:38 Why do you only show me what you use? Well, this is what I know, right? I'm not going to, you know, show you how people are using something for market research in the logistics industry because I don't do that. I don't know that. But, you know, kind of take a look at what I'm doing here and apply it to your own situation. But I think this is a great use case, right? This task, if I was doing this without AI or even if I was doing this, you know, with
Starting point is 00:07:02 Chad GPT or normal copilot or Gemini, you know, even this would probably be a multi- step process, but without AI, my gosh, you know, five years ago, this would have taken easily. I mean, if I was locked in, I could have done this in, I don't know, 40 to 50 hours, right, creating a full presentation. This is a lot of work. All right. So we're going to let co-pilot tasks kind of cook. And I'm going to show you a little bit more on what this does.
Starting point is 00:07:34 All right. So now we're taking a quick look at. the co-pilot announcement. So I'm just going to read the first paragraph or two here, just so you kind of know what this is. So they say co-pilot task is designed for everyone, not just developers or enterprise. Starting today, we're launching a research preview
Starting point is 00:07:52 to a small group of users so we can learn and refine with real-world feedback. Over the coming weeks, we'll continue to add more people into the preview before our broad launch. So here's what Microsoft says that tasks can do. They said, as we've tested copilot tasks in our everyday routines, a set of natural real-life use cases are starting to emerge.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Recurring tasks, this is the big one. So yes, this platform can schedule things. All right. So it says, you know, the example, every evening, service urgent emails with draft replies, ready to send and automatically unsubscribe from promotional mail. I may never open. Track new apartment rental listings nearby every Friday in book showings. So yes, this can agentically.
Starting point is 00:08:37 click around websites and user interfaces. And then it says Monday mornings, compile a briefing on key meetings, travel and analyze how I am spending my time versus priorities. So recurring tasks are huge. Also, document generation. It can create, you know, documents. So, you know, like Word doc, spreadsheets and presentations,
Starting point is 00:09:00 kind of the big three that Claude and ChatGPT do very well out of the box as well. You can do those in Gemini as well with a little bit more workaround in a couple extra clicks. But, you know, that's something that Claude and Chad Chbett do really well out of the box. But co-pilot tasks does this as well. You know, shopping, services and appointments. So, you know, whether some of those tasks you don't want to do, like if you want to find a top rated plumber near you or if you want to watch a used car listing 24-7 and book a test drive and contact the dealership. Right. So the website has a lot of
Starting point is 00:09:34 pretty good, you know, examples of what you can do. So here's how Microsoft says it works. They say co-pilot tasks is a to-do list that does itself. You describe what you need in natural language. Co-pilot plans and goes to work. You adjust or refine as needed. Tasks work in the background with its own computer and browser. That's the important part.
Starting point is 00:09:56 And I'm going to show you some tips and tricks on what you can do across various apps and services and reports back to you when it's done. Tasks can be recurring. schedule or run once based on your needs. Here's the branding piece here. You're right from Microsoft. They said it's not autopilot. It's a co-pilot working with you, giving you control of the final decision.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Tasks is designed to ask for consent before taking meaningful actions like spending money or sending a message on your behalf. You can review, pause, or cancel a task at any time. All right. So let's dive in and give a look. So I'm keeping an eye on the presentation that I asked it for. And it's already building the presentation, which is fairly impressive. All right.
Starting point is 00:10:48 So we're going to take a look at that when it's done. But I do have some examples. And I'm going to go over some of the settings first. So one thing now, I am here on the user interface. So again, this is the online version only. So that's just copilot. dot Microsoft.com and then you're going to click the task pane on the left hand side. So again, this is once you do get access, but I do believe that they're rolling this out
Starting point is 00:11:11 to essentially everyone if you go sign up. All right. So one thing I didn't fully realize because, well, it's, it's almost like one of those things that the user interface is maybe too clean. I didn't notice that you could actually scroll down from this main page. So it looks like just a splash landing page. And it gives you some actually really good examples and then a prompt box. So this is, you know, essentially you don't do the tasks in the normal chat box.
Starting point is 00:11:41 You would click tasks and then you can click the plus button to start a new task for you. There's also different modes, right? So there's the auto mode that you can run complex tasks from start to finish. Researcher, you can create a report with deep high quality research or analysts. You can turn your data into clear, actionable insight. So that's just more of, I believe, the mode that it uses. But I've done, I've done some testing on this. I've run, you know, different types of prompts in different kind of modes.
Starting point is 00:12:13 So as an example, that really long one that I just ran and it's building right now, the competitive analysis, I ran in auto. So I could have run it technically in researcher or maybe even analysts, even though I wasn't giving it data. There's probably a lot of data for it to go find. So I'm just doing these tests all in auto, FYI. All right. So on this main interface, you know, what I was talking about, it's like,
Starting point is 00:12:36 oh, you don't really know you can like scroll, kind of. Well, if you scroll, that's where you see all of your different upcoming tasks. So I've been doing some different testing with this. I have some scheduled tasks that I'll show you. But it's actually a nice interface once you kind of understand like, oh, I can scroll past this main kind of test prompt section. So it's a little confusing. So there's some example prompts.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Some for you prompts, which is really cool. Some productivity examples, money examples, home, social career. This is actually really helpful. It's not like I ever struggle to come up with, you know, ideas, but this was actually helpful, you know, to better understand the capabilities of tasks. So, wow. All right. That one's already done.
Starting point is 00:13:24 So it didn't take long. It took like eight minutes or something like that. So we'll take a look at the one that I started with. competitive analysis on the app that I'm building here in a minute, but I want to show you a couple other things first. So that's the interface. So it has the examples. You can click the examples.
Starting point is 00:13:42 You know, so I just click the, you know, weekly stock summary to my email. And then it will write out the entire prompt for you. And then you can go change it as you want. So pretty simple. Click gives you the prompt. You can hit enter and it goes to work. All right. A couple other things here.
Starting point is 00:14:03 This is in settings. So one thing I can't really click on, but a preview for one of the three big reasons why you should use it is you can do these tasks by text message, which is great. Right. This is one of the big reasons why I think, you know, platforms like OpenClaw and a computer have gotten really popular. It's just, well, using the interface that you already use. All right.
Starting point is 00:14:28 So you can do that. settings, I'm not going to click on it because then my phone number is going to be on the screen. And that would be absolutely terrible. But the connectors, it works with your connectors as well. So here are the connectors that it works with. So unfortunately right now, it's read only access for most of these. So it can search files in your Google Drive, can search and read events in your Google calendar. It can search, read and analyze messages in your Gmail inbox.
Starting point is 00:14:56 And then Google contacts, you can access your Google. Google Context as well as Microsoft OneDrive, search read and analyze files in your OneDrive, and then Microsoft Outlook, Search, read, and analyze messages and invites in your Outlook inbox and calendar. All right. So those are all the different connectors. They have. I have all of my Google connectors already connected.
Starting point is 00:15:19 All right. So I do want to show you a couple features that I think are really cool. So these are some examples that I already had done. So I said, look at Google trends, okay? and compare AI Studio versus Lovable. Then put together a comparison of each platform's latest updates through March 2026. Also, please find five similar tools to Google's AI Studio and Lovable. Lastly, put all this information together in a presentation.
Starting point is 00:15:45 All right. So the good thing is, at any point, you can see the basics of how it went and completed your task. So always check, summarize chain of thought. So you can see exactly what the model did. So in this case, right, I can see and look. It literally went to trends.govil.com. It typed in Google AI Studio. And it typed in lovable dev.
Starting point is 00:16:14 And it brought up those comparisons. One thing I wish that we could do here, which hopefully they'll add this. I like this in other platforms. The photo is kind of really small. But I can see it actually used a browser and it actually went to Google Trends. and it pulled this data, which is really nice. So I can go and look at each and every step, right? So it went to, you know, blog.g.g.com.
Starting point is 00:16:37 It went to, you know, Android's age.com. So we went to all these different websites to find all this information. So I'm looking through each and every step that it went through. And then after, you know, kind of doing some computer use because it dynamically pulled in information from Google Trends, that's a live and dynamic database. Then it went out. It did a couple agentic polls from the web, different websites, and then it put together the actual slideshow here. So it put together a deck, 11, looks like 11 slides.
Starting point is 00:17:08 And here's the thing that I absolutely love. So it gives you a nice, you know, platform overview just in text. It made me a chart. But then here's the actual presentation. Now, here's what I love. And one of the things I think Microsoft is underselling because looking at their marketing, I didn't even see them mention this. I actually found this by accident, and it's a pretty big feature.
Starting point is 00:17:34 So they do have some of these capabilities in their other co-pilot, I guess, visual platforms. I think they have this in designer and maybe a couple other things. So on my screen now, I have this presentation that it put together. I can drag it to make it a little bigger, which I'm doing right now on my screen. but it's actually a pretty decent looking slide deck, FYI, right? Like not to knock on PowerPoint, but I'm like, this looks better than what I probably would have gotten out of PowerPoint if I was using copilot. So I'm like, first of all, how the heck am I getting something better out of, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:18 this brand new co-pilot task platform that I would get if I use their enterprise product like PowerPoint and using copilot. So first of all, I'm like scratching my head, like visually. How is this slide so good? Number one. Okay. Let's get that out of the way. Number two, this is all editable, right?
Starting point is 00:18:42 So I can go in manually, right? So I'm clicking like Google AI Studio and then lovable, you know, so let's say I wanted to call it lovable agent, right, even though it's not. But I can just literally click on the slide and I'm typing. All right. This is extremely impressive. I can click things at any point. So here's the other great thing.
Starting point is 00:19:08 Let me go down to this slide here. So it brought in the correct information from Google Trends. So all I need to do is click on something. And then you'll see in the prompt box on the left hand side. So I have my presentation on the right hand side. And anytime I click on something, three things technically change. Number one, the prompt box on the left hand side now shows me that I have selected an image. And then at the same time, it brought up the researcher kind of mode.
Starting point is 00:19:41 And then at the top, there's two new buttons above the slide. One says preview and I can look at the code or preview. And then the other one says AI edits. So there's some default things I can click. I can fix the layout or polish the content. So I'm actually going to do that in the slide above. I'm just going to click Polish content, right? So if you don't like how what are these slides turns out,
Starting point is 00:20:06 you literally just have to click it, click Polish content, and it's going to give you hopefully a better version of that one. All right. So while that one cooks there, I'm going to go down. And oh, I can't do two things at once, unfortunately. I didn't test that out. So we're working on an approach here. It says putting together a plan,
Starting point is 00:20:27 figuring out the steps, right? So I have to stall here for 90 seconds. Love doing live demos of general AI. Oh, no, I don't have to stall anymore. It's almost done. So I'm seeing it, which is really cool. I'm seeing it build, rebuild this slide live, which is actually fascinating to watch, right?
Starting point is 00:20:44 Literally icon by icon, bullet point by bullet point. Pretty cool. I'm wondering if it's going to have to read. resize one of these columns here because it looks like it went over, maybe it went over the halfway point. Let's see if it's going to do that or not. Oh, just did. Bam, fast. All right, actually, this slide does look a little bit better. It's not a ton different. So there we go. It redid the Google AI studio slide on the left hand side. You know, Adobe just introduced an entirely new way to create, bringing the power and precision of its creative suite into one conversational
Starting point is 00:21:25 experience. Meet Firefly AI Assistant, now live in the Adobe Firefly app, the all-in-one creative AI studio.

Starting point is 00:22:13 redirect, or take over at any time. You stay in the driver's seat as the creative director. Adobe Firefly AI assistant now in public beta. See it today at firefly.adopi.com. Wow. Okay. So very, very nice. It's done. It did polish it up a little bit, not a ton different from the first one. But here's one of the cool features that, again, some things Microsoft just didn't even talk about. All right. So now I'm going back to the Google Trends data here. So for our podcast audience, it's a nice looking, you know, trend line. It pulled it from Google Trends. It's accurate. So all I'm going to say, I'm going to click on it and then I can go over to the prompt box and I'm going to say, Turn the Google AI studio line green and the lovable line yellow. Right. Y'all conversational editing, right? So not only, not only can you, you know, kind of create and do your task with natural language. You don't have to be an engineer.
Starting point is 00:23:24 You don't have to know development. You don't have to be an analyst or researcher or any of this. You just have to, number one, know what you want, be able to convey that in natural language. You have to be a smart expert driving the loop. You have to understand and look at the chain of thought and command it. Make sure it's doing all the right actions that you want. But the thing that I love is when you see something you don't like, when you see something that maybe should be improved.
Starting point is 00:23:49 I mean, just this experience right here, right? I don't think it's on the notebook LM level yet. But the ability to create good looking slides, good looking documents, and being able to make click-based edits, this is really, really good, right? Like I said, like I'm not getting anything like this even in PowerPoint, which kind of baffles me, right? Like, how's this brand new technology outshining its big brother key partner? All right. So interesting. So not only did it make this slide a little bit better by changing the color,
Starting point is 00:24:33 but it also just made it a little bit better visually, clean up the design a little bit as well. So there you go. Wow. All right. Let's look at the next couple different examples. So here's another one I thought was pretty impressive. So this is a scheduled task.
Starting point is 00:24:53 So let me go back. back to my tasks here and I'm going to find this Schedule 1 and show you exactly what it does. So one thing, it can be good or bad. It just depends on kind of your skills and how much work that you're putting into a conversation here. Copilot tasks can change your kind of prompt that you give it, right, which is very normal, FYI. Like most, especially for scheduled actions, most kind of platforms do this. But if you go into your scheduled tasks and then you click on something, all right, so I did a daily email recap test.
Starting point is 00:25:34 And all I did in my prompt was I said, you know, recap my most important emails. And it went and it made the prompt much longer. You know, it says search the user's Gmail inbox for recent emails from today that may need a response, right? And then it's saying what tool call to use, use the search email with Gmail to receive recent emails, right? Blah, blah, blah. All right.
Starting point is 00:25:54 So here's the one that I wanted to show, the daily AI newsletter research and email. So in this case, it probably improved my prompt, right? Because I did something basic, but I did tell it to review the last three newsletters at read. Dot your everyday AI.com. And I did say if there's an exit intent pop up, just ignore it. I said, look at the last three newsletters, you know, see what happened in our bite-sized news and fresh find section.
Starting point is 00:26:27 And then I gave it types of AI news to search for. That's 24 hours old or less. And then draft it all together in an email and then, you know, run that every single day. Right. So then one thing, I would, I would love to see. There's a start now button. But I wanted to be able to just go to that. that exact prompt.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Anyways, it did a really good job, right? So here I am looking at the results. It's, you know, gave me 12 of these fresh finds. And then it gave me 12 examples of bite-sized news items that. And then I can click. It made a draft email at the bottom. And then I just click open. And then all of those things are in there.
Starting point is 00:27:12 So it actually creates this kind of, you know, I guess Outlook, Outlook-esque, you know, email editor right inside of co-pilot tasks. So unfortunately, like I kind of talked about earlier, it doesn't send emails, right, which is maybe a good or a bad thing. It just kind of drafts them. But then from here, I don't have to do anything else. Literally, I click send, and that's it. Because I have my connector already connected, that's it.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I go in there, I look at it, I click sentence. So think of all those manual research things that you do. It can read your documents, right? So let's just say your team works in Google Drive. And one of your big responsibilities every day is to go through, look at some files, some Google Docs that were uploaded, some spreadsheet updates. You have to look at things that are new in there, go do some research, filter it through your position, your company, your, you know, personal expertise.
Starting point is 00:28:16 and then, you know, create a new document or, you know, email some colleagues about some findings that you found, right? This is all now automated. You can do all of these things automatically, right, which is really cool. All right. Let's roll through a couple other very quick examples, creating spreadsheets. You know, here I just did a random example. You know, I said, find the 20 most populous cities, put them in a spreadsheet with their population, the official city website and then for fun I did the you know the different pro sports teams so very quickly put together all that one other thing I like is there's a sources button up here so in the in the document creation section it is more interactive than what you might typically see because like
Starting point is 00:29:03 I said there's a sources button up here so you can actually see where it pulled all of this information from so did a good job it was accurate right got my, my bulls, bears, cubs, white socks, and black hawks. All right. Here's another one that I thought did a really good job. I said, in this one, I actually did from my phone, right? I just texted myself, or not texted myself. I texted co-pilot.
Starting point is 00:29:32 So when you do verify your kind of SMS, your phone, that it just saves it. And then I just put the name co-pilot. And I just dictated this. And I said, can you go to my website at Your EverydayAI.com and find the last three episodes of the start here series and do a quick recap of those three episodes and put them all in a presentation. And then can you email that presentation to info at Your EverydayAI.com? So it put together all of the really pretty again, design wise. I was surprised how well this did out of the box. So it put together a nice.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Looks like a 12 page presentation here. I can go look at the sources and see it only brought in our website, our content. So that's good. Put together a nice presentation. The email draft, the presentation here, right? There's also a present feature in there. There's version history, being able to see all the sources, you know, downloading this as a power point or saving it to your One Drive directly in one click.
Starting point is 00:30:46 So very impressive. All right. Let's last thing here. Let's just go look at the results here as we wrap up our, uh, this week's edition of AI at work on Wednesday. So let's see how good of a job. So to remind you, we started this out. We did it live.
Starting point is 00:31:03 All right. I'm just kind of scrolling through here. Looks like it did a pretty decent job. All right. So again, I said I'm working on product research. search for an app I'm building. Please research and run a competitive analysis on Mac Whisper. Whisper Flow, cast magic, and tube on AI.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Please include a comprehensive overview of these platforms, comparative and cumulative looks at Google Trends search volume, reviews, average score on popular third-party sites, a deep dive, right? All these things I ask for. So not only I can go through, I can obviously look at all the different research that it did. It did a pretty good amount here, right? As an example, I'm looking at some of these websites.
Starting point is 00:31:46 I went to get Latka, great resource, crunch base, LinkedIn. You know, so it went to Google Trends slash dot. So a lot of good resources here. And then it also gave me a nice text base kind of overview, very high level. But then it obviously gave me the kind of PowerPoint presentation that it prepared. A lot of the by default, a lot of the, you know, presentations are kind of repetitive. I don't think that's a bad thing necessarily because like I showed you with a little bit of editing,
Starting point is 00:32:21 you can change them. Also with a little bit on the, you know, stylistically, I could guide it on the front end, say, hey, use, you know, these color codes. You know, I probably could have uploaded a photo of one of my other slides and said, you know, try to model it a little bit like this. But by default, it does seem to use kind of repetitive designs. But again, if you give it some guidance, I'm sure that's not going to be an issue. But at least the designs are super clean by default.
Starting point is 00:32:47 So it gave me an executive summary here. You know, here's some information on whisper flow, market positioning map, SWAT snapshot and white space. That's really cool. Mac Whisper Breakdown Tube on AI, Cast Magic. Oh, geez, this is very impressive. It created a full feature, comparison. So it looks like how many things do we have here?
Starting point is 00:33:15 It looks like we have like about 15 or so main features and then it shows me which platforms have it. And I do use a lot of these platforms. I'm kind of looking at them as we go. Yeah, this is pretty impressive. Wow. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:38 So a lot of detail. As an example, Cast Magic is a platform. I use every day. And then, you know, one of the categories was URL or link-based input. And it said yes for Cast Magic, but it said YouTube, Zoom or RSS. So that's correct, right? Pretty, pretty impressive. And then we have here the ICP comparison, who each product serves.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Review scores and user sentiment does a great job. Market track it. Traction comparison. Looks like one slide went a little bit over. But again, I could, you know, edit that if I, needed to key takeaways for product strategy. This is just really, really good. All right. Again, I, I one shot at this without really any effort. This is just an example. And what I got out of here, I'm like, geez, this is actually really good. Right. I'm obviously going to go through here,
Starting point is 00:34:30 give it some actual information about the product that I'm building. I'm going to go through, look at some of this information and rerun this. But y'all, by default, I think we have a like a low key powerhouse that's free right now, right? I don't know how long this is going to be free. But again, very, very impressive. All right. Let's end with this. The three reasons why I think everyone should be using co-pilot tasks right now.
Starting point is 00:34:59 All right. Number one, it's easier and free, right? It's easier than OpenClawe in Claude Co-work. All right, not Claude Co-worker. Got a little auto track there. So it's easier than OpenClaw and Claude Co Work. And it's cheaper than both of those. Obviously, you know, OpenClaw is technically free and open source.
Starting point is 00:35:21 But if you really want good outputs from OpenClaught, you're going to need to use your API keys, not just free models. Claude CoWRourke, obviously, you need to have a subscription for. Perplexity computer is really good, but it's very expensive. So you have a version. of a cheaper version of OpenClaught and Claude Co-work, and it's simpler. Like, I'm like, I don't know how this product exists right now.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Right? And it's, it's in beta. So hopefully, as long as Microsoft sticks with it, it's going to get a lot better. All right. So that's reason number one. It is easier and cheaper. Number two, you can text copilot.
Starting point is 00:36:06 Simple, right? Meeting you where you're at. You don't have to learn a new interface, right? copilot online. If you haven't used it, it's simple, right? But you can just text it. Simple, right? And I love another thing that I didn't even mention in here.
Starting point is 00:36:22 You can log on to different services that you use. So it has its own browser. You can say go log, right? I did this as an example. I said go log into, go log into, I gave it the login URL for Buzzsprout. That's my podcast, you know, host. it went to the login page. I took it over.
Starting point is 00:36:44 I entered my credentials. It's in there, right? Obviously before you, in any agentic system, right? Only enter your credentials if you have permission to. I'm the business owner. I can do that. I'm not too scared. So yeah, you can literally log into different systems and services that you use all the
Starting point is 00:37:01 time and then just text, right? So I can just say, hey, that episode from last week, how many downloads did it get? So I don't have to wait until I get home on my computer. if I'm out taking a walk, I can just text co-pilot, just talk in any service that I'm logged into. I can get that information immediately. And then last but not least, it just combines a highly capable, agentic, large language model with a computer using agent and document creation, right?
Starting point is 00:37:28 At least right now, that's kind of like the holy trinity, right? That's the three things people want. They want an extremely capable, agentic, large language model, number one, they want a computer you're using agent number two, and they want to be able to create documents, right? Because it's no good if you just get all this stuff that just lives in a chat box somewhere.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Right? So, it brings all things together. It's in beta. It's very good. Yeah, and there's some bugs. There's some things I wish were better. Like, I hope eventually, you know, kind of the last mile of this, you know, being able to save or write.
Starting point is 00:38:06 I know that Microsoft right now is probably restricting some of that intention. I'm looking for some workarounds, so I don't have to go in and click send on the email. I don't have to do the one click to save something to OneDrive or something like that. I'm sure I'll be able to figure out some workarounds. But I do hope that there's a secure and out-of-the-box way that you can save some of those scheduled flows. But again, being able to schedule these things, being able to access different websites that you log it into, if you do want to go that route, I just think that this is an extremely impressive offering from Microsoft that, again,
Starting point is 00:38:44 I don't know why anyone's talking about, but I am. And if it does get better and if you guys want to know about it, I'll make sure to keep talking about it.
