Making CoPilot Work for our Organisation

Hi,

let's dive into your questions:

1. There is no deeper integration with your data in GPT-5; it is simply a more advanced language model with improved reasoning and response capabilities.
2. Access to your SharePoint data is enabled by default and handled via the GraphAPI, which respects existing content permissions. When the first Microsoft 365 Copilot license is added to your tenant, a semantic tenant index is automatically created for SharePoint data. Once a license is assigned to a user, a personal semantic index is generated for their mailbox and OneDrive data.
3. Regarding data protection: Microsoft does not use your data to train the underlying model. For customers within the EEA, Microsoft 365 Copilot complies fully with the EU Data Boundary and GDPR requirements. This is an enormous difference (by default) to ChatGPT.
4. Regarding your requirement to generate bids based on historical data: this functionality must be configured within a dedicated agent. A default agent can only respond to queries based on the data provided. To generate such documents, very specific instructions tailored to your use case are required. We have developed various types of agents, such as those for tenders. With clearly defined instructions, the results can be significantly improved.
