Microsoft Develops OpenClaw-Like Autonomous Agents for Enterprise Copilot

Microsoft is testing OpenClaw-style AI agents integrated into Copilot to enable autonomous 24/7 task execution in Microsoft 365 environments. The approach includes enhanced security controls designed to address concerns about the risky open-source OpenClaw agent. Rather than retreating from AI integration after 'microslop' backlash, Microsoft is entering stealth mode, embedding Copilot Cowork—powered by Anthropic's Claude technology—deeper into enterprise tools.
