Briefings

Microsoft announced that AI-powered Copilot and Office features will now be accessible to all users on Microsoft 365 Family and Premium plans, not just the primary account holder. This change allows up to five other people on the plan to share the same AI benefits, marking a significant shift from previous restrictions. The update is scheduled to take effect over the coming months, as outlined in a recent email to subscribers.

Key points

• Microsoft allows up to five other users on a Microsoft 365 Family or Premium plan to share Copilot and AI usage features with the primary account holder.
• Previously, only the primary account holder could access AI benefits, and this change enables broader sharing across the plan.

Context and limitations

The specific implementation timeline and exact rollout dates for the new sharing feature are not yet confirmed.
