How Does OneDrive Change in the AI Era?

Explore how OneDrive’s role is evolving in the AI era, why governance matters more than ever, and how to stay in control.

What used to be “my files, my work” now fuels search, discovery, and AI-powered experiences across Microsoft 365. That shift changes everything about how OneDrive needs to be governed, managed, and maintained.

Handled well, OneDrive gives people a flexible, intuitive way to work with their files while staying within IT policy guidelines.

Handled poorly, in the AI era, that chaos scales quickly.
