About this week's edition
Copilot is Microsoft's AI assistant across Windows, Office, and the web, and using it well is becoming a workplace skill. This weekly quiz tests that skill: features, prompting habits, and the AI concepts underneath.
The round works as micro-training. Teams adopting AI assistants use questions like these to check whether the basics — what the assistant can access, when it cites sources, how to refine a prompt — have actually landed.
General AI-assistant literacy questions round out each edition, so the knowledge transfers to whichever assistant you use next.
