Microsoft Reveals Copilot Usage As Digital Companion
Microsoft published “It’s About Time: The Copilot Usage Report 2025,” analyzing 37.5 million anonymous Copilot conversations from January through September 2025, excluding enterprise and education accounts. The study finds desktop use concentrates on work and career during 8 a.m.–5 p.m., while mobile interactions center on health and personal advice around the clock, and programming queries declined as cultural topics rose. The findings frame Copilot as a dual-role companion and raise responsibilities for accuracy and ethics.
