Will that ever be enough revenue to offset the massive investments they’ve made in AI? Time will tell. Right now, these are some early warning signs, but also small enough that I can’t imagine they’ll move the needle one way or the other. I’m not jumping to any conclusions based on them, but I do have my eyes open.
If you can get Copilot to drop a link into the auto-summary, it would be less suspicious than an email sent from outside with a link. That’s probably true. After all, if you trust your AI Summarization tool to summarize the email instead of reading it, why wouldn’t you trust any links it included?

The slop problem is the kind of PR problem that kills industries. It’s the Ford Pinto’s exploding gas tank, New Coke, and the iTunes U2 album fiasco all rolled into one. People see all the hype about AI, then experience entire websites and tens of thousands of social media accounts spewing content no one wants, generated by AI.
That’s a perception problem that won’t go away because you want customers to stop talking about it. You have to build a tool that doesn’t create this problem.
This might not seem like a big deal, but it is. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to create a separate Team for a small group because they want a Private Channel, but they also want to use Planner in it, or some other app that wasn’t supported in Private Channels.
This is a pretty significant change for many of us who had been concerned about vetting data protection agreements with Anthropic before allowing user access to the Claude option in Coiplot Chat, and who’ve also watched new agents for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint rollout, but not to our tenants with Anthropic model access disabled.
