Microsoft launched Cowork, a new Copilot AI tool, enhancing Microsoft 365's functionality with agentic AI through collaboration with Anthropic. Cowork is integrated into a new $99 E7 subscription, offering managed enterprise-grade experiences. It includes a context engine, Work IQ, to leverage data from Microsoft and other applications. Analysts note adoption may be slow due to existing E5 contracts. Cowork aims to optimize task management and collaboration in business workflows, although data security concerns remain.
