Microsoft Relearns Copilot Value: The Koda Signal, 2026-10-12

Koda Signal daily AI briefing for 2026-10-12.

In this episode: • Microsoft Relearns Copilot Value: In a sponsored Q&A produced in partnership with Microsoft, The Rundown's Cheung interviews Jacob Andreou, Microsoft's EVP of Copilot, on what the rebuilt Copilot is meant to fix. Andreou says Microsoft had to relearn that pushing more users into the top of the funnel does not equal delivering more value. Because the piece is sponsored, it reads as Microsoft's own account of the rebuild. • AGILINK Hand Performs Suzhou Embroidery: AGILINK's OmniHand 3 Ultra performed basic Suzhou embroidery: it split silk thread into 16 strands, threaded a needle, stretched fabric and made stitches. The hand has 21 active degrees of freedom, adjusts its force as the slippery thread bends, and uses reinforcement learning to adapt.
