Ehh, kinda.

The DWP is trialing an internal tool based on Microsoft Copilot, a digital assistant, to help automate tasks, Civil Service World reported.

Looks like they’re wrapping it in some stuff to govern its usage. They could’ve done this with vanilla Chat GPT, but they’re probably partnering with Microsoft because Microsoft is massive enough to actually build part of the solution.

MS staffed up to do a fuck load of enterprise copilot stuff. I personally know a number of companies working with them on partnered copilot projects.

    It's probably about data control. If it's part of your it and you can control access and data retention, fine. But if everyone feeds the chatgpt website with documents and sensitive info, that's an issue.

    Absolutely. There is a ton of governance stuff is required at an organizational and national level. Want to use AI to automate some tasks for PII? You’re legally required to keep that stuff under tight control.
