In this episode, Robert Loft and Haley Hanson unpack how Microsoft is dominating the AI agent ecosystem with its Copilot Studio. With over 100,000 organizations creating agents to handle everything from fraud prevention to inventory checks, Microsoft is making automation smarter and more integrated than ever.

We’ll dive into:

  • Microsoft’s "agent mesh" vision: Seamless collaboration between AI agents across enterprises.
  • How McKinsey and Virgin Money are saving time and millions with AI-driven workflows.
  • The tech competition: Can Salesforce, OpenAI, and Google catch up?
  • The hurdles ahead: AI hallucinations, pricing concerns, and multi-vendor strategies.

Are AI agents just another trend, or are they redefining how enterprises function? We’ve got the insights and the skepticism covered.
