summary for non-techies**
Microsoft Copilot is enhancing custom connectors by adding descriptive metadata, allowing for better context and understanding of data, which improves the accuracy and relevance of responses by enabling the language model to understand data's purpose and semantics more clearly.
Direct effects for Operations**
Inaccurate Responses from Copilot
Without proper preparation, the new metadata enrichment may lead to inaccurate or irrelevant responses from Copilot, as the LLM may not fully understand the context of the data.
