Microsoft 365 Copilot gets a speed boost and cleaner design

Microsoft is rolling out a revamped Microsoft 365 Copilot with a cleaner interface that it says loads twice as fast. The update adds more structured responses, an expandable prompt box with text formatting, and progressive disclosure that shows tools based on the user’s prompt.

The update reflects Microsoft’s push to make workplace AI feel less cluttered and more task-focused as adoption moves beyond early users. Faster performance and adaptive controls could improve daily usability, but the bigger challenge remains proving that AI assistants consistently save time in productivity workflows.
