And here is @simondoy.bsky.social doing the hands on insights into #AI and @microsoft.com #Copilot at Coventry & Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce AI and #Cybersecurity event.
The 80% turnout is an indication of how important businesses see AI to their success.

A7: I think keeping it simple and not trying to duplicate the capabilities of other agent technologies in Microsoft 365 will help. Though there should be an upgrade path so that people can move to more complex solutions when needed. #CollabTalk
simondoy.bsky.social
A6: I think having editable built-in agents will have a big impact on adoption. I do worry about the control and agent sprawl. #CollabTalk
simondoy.bsky.social
A5: I think the fact that they are not as powerful and configurable as their Copilot Studio cousins is a big limitation. However, that is also their benefit as they are less complicated and do one thing well. Use in HR, Sales, Finance and IT #CollabTalk
simondoy.bsky.social
A2: Agents should serve a particular focus like an App on a phone. Ensure you do not mix too many different data types that are for different purposes in your libraries. Ideally just the one purpose. #CollabTalk
simondoy.bsky.social
A1: The generation of them is straight-forward and anyone can create them provided they have permission and licenses. They are a much lower bar to entry. They appear in SharePoint and easy to switch between agents through SharePoint. #CollabTalk

You are probably right will have to take a look at our pipelines.
Glad you got sorted though.
