not sure there is any research done by people using office suite...
it sounds like you are conflating LLM in general with the crappy copilot that MS offers with the office suite
an LLM could be useful for research of large (large) datasets... Copilot would not be
I don't know much about copilot, but some quick research shows it uses GPT-5 for the chat feature. I assume that's what's meant by the average queries in the article.
