Microsoft is holding a OneDrive digital event on October 8th that will cover the “latest innovations in AI across Microsoft 365 and OneDrive.” It’s the second annual event after Microsoft held a similar stream last year to introduce a big new design update for the cloud storage service, AI Copilot integration, and lots more.

This year Microsoft is promising to announce “what’s coming for Copilot in OneDrive” alongside enhancements to the OneDrive mobile app and an “improved photos experience.” The event will also cover OneDrive features across work and personal accounts.

The OneDrive digital event will be hosted on Microsoft Teams and will include the ability to ask the OneDrive product team questions about the cloud storage service. It follows a special Copilot event on September 16th, where Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and vice president of AI at work, Jared Spataro, will focus on what’s next for Microsoft’s AI assistant.

Microsoft is expected to announce a subtle rebranding of its business-focused Copilot assistant, and introduce new Copilot features for Microsoft 365 that will try and tempt more businesses to sign up for the $30 per user per month pricing.
