Microsoft has upgraded the Researcher agent in M365 Copilot with 'Computer Use', a feature that automates tasks on authenticated websites using a secure VM.
The upgrade transforms the agent from a tool that finds and synthesizes information into one that can actively perform tasks on a user's behalf.
The new capability allows the AI to navigate complex websites, interact with authenticated content, and automate multi-step workflows.
