It would be pretty cool to have a little app to personalize your instance of Copilot.
Like custom gpts / mini rag - where you could provide context about yourself, your preferences etc. So that it got that personal angle outside of the company context

The UI of Copilot Studio shows us that GPTs are coming to commercial Copilot customization options, so we may soon have a solution to at least part of this.

Due diligence would be the correct path to deploy Copilot across the org-wide with all the things in mind what should be allowed and not

Thanks for watching. Yes, agreed, but due diligence is also the correct approach to safely crossing the street. The key is to be adequately informed about the context and risk landscape and then be able to apply a commensurately diligent approach to the various issues that are highlighted.
There is a lot to do to build a foundation of knowledge around AI so we cannot assume individuals will simply apply due diligence or common sense based on a common framework of understanding. The more knowledge sharing and training, the better position everyone will be in.
