Autonomous agents are changing the way we work—capable of operating independently, dynamically planning next steps, orchestrating other agents, learning from interactions, and escalating tasks without continuous human oversight. In this video, I break down what AI agents are, the different types along the spectrum of autonomy, and where they can be applied in real-world use cases.

You’ll then see a full demo of how to build an autonomous agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio, covering features like orchestration, knowledge, actions, triggers, and the Activity tab.

By the end, you’ll understand both the concepts and the practical steps to design, build, and deploy your own autonomous agents in Copilot Studio.
