An AI co-pilot is an artificial intelligence assistant designed to work alongside a person, helping with tasks while leaving the user in control of important decisions. It can understand context, analyze information, generate content, suggest actions, automate routine steps, and provide recommendations within a particular workflow or application.
Unlike fully autonomous AI systems, a co-pilot typically supports human judgment rather than replacing it. For example, a software-development co-pilot can suggest code, while a business co-pilot might summarize documents, analyze data, or prepare reports. Common capabilities include natural language processing, generative AI, retrieval-augmented generation, and workflow automation.
