Microsoft’s Copilot Tasks takes care of your to-do list for you

Microsoft’s Copilot Tasks takes care of your to-do list for you

More and more AI tools are now becoming agentic, meaning they can perform actions on your behalf. Microsoft really wants to get in on the fun and hopefully convince users that they should switch over to Copilot, and they’re doing so with a new agentic AI tool called Copilot Tasks . Microsoft describes Copilot Tasks as a to-do list that handles all the tasks for you. You can ask Copilot Tasks to take care of recurring tasks, such as creating a weekly plan every Monday or picking out the most important emails in your inbox every evening and suggesting replies. Copilot Tasks will also be able to do things like plan, book, send out, and collect invitations to birthday parties, keep track of your paid subscriptions and cancel the ones you don’t use, and find, compare, and book the best tradespeople as needed. Microsoft states that these agentic AI features are still a “research preview,” so it may be quite some time before they’re actually launched to the general public. If you want to try out an early version of Copilot Tasks, you can sign up for the waiting list .
