Microsoft's big Copilot rollback continues as Office now lets you move its button to the ribbon
Microsoft has made changes to its Copilot feature in Office, allowing users to move the Copilot button to the ribbon. This update aims to reduce the intrusive nature of Copilot by keeping it out of the way while still accessible. The adjustments reflect user feedback, indicating a preference for more control over the AI's presence in their workflow.
