Microsoft's Build conference showcased a strong AI push, featuring GitHub Copilot's evolution into an autonomous coding agent and the Windows AI Found

Surprising no one, Microsoft's Build 2025 conference is mostly centered around its Copilot AI. Today, the company announced that it has begun rolling out its "Wave 2 Spring release," which includes a revamped Microsoft 365 Copilot app.

At Microsoft Build 2025, the company unveiled its forward-looking strategy centered around AI agents — intelligent digital assistants designed to think.

Microsoft announced during its Build 2025 keynote that it will open source GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio Code and add several new features.

Build 2025 was all about AI, but Microsoft also made WSL open-source The company knows just how valuable its community of contributors has been Microsoft wants users to "engage in issue resolution and learn together as a community" Microsoft has officially open-sourced Windows Subsystem for Linux at its annual software engineer and web developer conference,

Reading, organizing, and answering emails are tedious and time-consuming tasks that are crucial to everyone's daily workflows, regardless of your industry or occupation. To help, Microsoft has added new Copilot features for Outlook mail and calendar that are now generally available to users.

It was all about AI agents at Microsoft's Build developer conference, with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman joining to talk about the future of AI coding.

Copilot is likely to be a headliner at Build, and big changes to it could be on the way. Microsoft is reportedly testing alternative AI models from xAI, Meta, Anthropic, and DeepSeek as possible replacements for OpenAI technology in Copilot as the relationship between Microsoft and OpenAI becomes strained.

At Microsoft Build, Microsoft lays out what agents and agentic AI will mean for Copilot and you, with updated apps and a future where AI can control functions on your PC.

Developers will be able to assign agents to refactor code, improve test coverage, fix defects and modernize apps, among other tasks.
