Copilot and large documents
I have figured out a way to move forward. I had to go back to the regular copilot App. I stored my content in pages. I will probably end up with about 40 pages. I have found out I can have Copilot refer to a prior page. That helps with Sequence and helps to keep some of the context for Copilot. Just a heads up to anyone using the copilot app. I encountered a bug in copilot. Probably a fluke. But while processing one of Copilots responses only got half way done. It came back with half a page highlighted. I tried reopening Copilot and rebooting. Still highlighted. Issued a new conversation to clear it. But I lost half of my page content. Good thing I was pasting into Word all along, so I was able to recover. But it could have been bad if I did not have things backed up.
If you have an M365 Copilot license, try Copilot Chat. https://m365.cloud.microsoft/chat
Put your document in a folder in your OneDrive or SharePoint. Switch the chat to "Work," enable GPT-5 in the top right corner, and start your conversation with Copilot. This should work.
