Microsoft Build 2026 is over, and as expected, Satya Nadella’s keynote was all about agentic systems, or AI that acts on your behalf without direct supervision. To that end, several features and applications were introduced.
This includes Microsoft IQ, which is now generally available across GitHub Copilot, Foundry, and Copilot Studios. It’s the new context layer that feeds AI agents real workplace knowledge (Work IQ from M365 Signals), structured business data (Fabric IQ), and fast web grounding via the new Web IQ. Frontier Tuning, available in private preview, allows agents to learn how your business operates within your compliance boundaries.
