## Background: AI is Shifting from a Tool to "Use" to a Partner to "Work With"
While the adoption of Microsoft Copilot is progressing in many companies, business interest has shifted from merely "introducing a tool" to "coexisting with AI"—how to seamlessly integrate AI into practical tasks and dramatically improve productivity.
However, significant hurdles remain for on-site integration. At the same time, new challenges are emerging regarding how to govern autonomous AI and ensure its reliability.
In response to this situation, we planned this seminar in collaboration with Microsoft Japan to widely share solutions to the challenge of Copilot "integration" and the latest trends and outlook of "Agent 365," which holds the key to AI governance and reliability assurance.
## Seminar Highlights
The seminar will feature Mr. Hanagasaki, who supports domestic companies in AI solution design and implementation as a Partner Solution Architect at Microsoft Japan, and Ogata, CTO of SkillUp NeXt, who boasts top-class domestic experience in supporting AI implementation and human resource development.
1. Practical Processes and Latest Case Studies for Microsoft Copilot Integration
Through the behind-the-scenes of the generative AI contest "AI Challenge Day," partnered by SkillUp NeXt, we will explain the real challenges faced in the field and the specific adoption processes needed to overcome them.
2. Latest Trends in "Agent 365" and the Outlook for Autonomous Business
We will reveal the latest information on "Agent 365," scheduled for release in the US in May, designed to govern autonomously operating AI and ensure reliability.
